Thank you, Sigma Gamma Rho, for supporting the kids of St. Jude
At St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, we have a legacy of doing what is right — not what is easy. From standing against segregation to launching one of the largest pediatric sickle cell programs in the country, every successful stride helps propel us forward. Join us as we work towards a new era of scientific discovery and healthcare equity. The fundraising efforts of Sigma Gamma Rho and the NPHC leads help ensure that families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food — so they can focus on helping their child live.
In October 2023, Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. completed a historic pledge to raise $1 million for St. Jude. This achievement was met before the international collegiate and nonprofit community service organization’s 101st anniversary, marking over a century of commitment to helping those in need.
With this achievement, Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. became the first Divine Nine sorority to raise $1 million for St. Jude.
Members, affiliates and friends from across the country are invited to join Sigma Gamma Rho in the fight against pediatric cancer and sickle cell disease by raising money through programs like the St. Jude Walk/Run and St. Jude Leadership Society, as well as contributions from individual members and local chapters.
