Your DAF grant* can provide children cutting-edge treatments not covered by insurance, at no cost to families.

  1. A $250 grant from your donor-advised fund could help provide meals for a St. Jude family for one week.

    St. Jude provides patients and their families with meal cards for breakfast, lunch and dinner in Kay Kafe, the hospital’s cafeteria.

    Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food — so they can focus on helping their child live.

  2. A $1,500 grant from your donor-advised fund could help cover the cost of one day of chemotherapy for a St. Jude patient. 

    Chemotherapy is often part of a patient's treatment plan for a life-threatening disease.

    Treatments developed at St. Jude have helped push the overall survival rate for childhood cancer from 20% when the hospital opened in 1962 to more than 80% today.

  3. A $4,000 grant from your donor-advised fund could help cover the cost of an ICU room for one day.

    The intensive care unit provides world-class care for St. Jude patients with childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases.

    St. Jude won't stop until no child dies from cancer.

  4. A $15,000 grant from your donor-advised fund could help cover the cost of two CT scans for St. Jude patients.

    A CT scan is a diagnostic test that is often needed as part of a patient's treatment and care. 

    No matter how much you grant, your support will help St. Jude continue its lifesaving mission: Finding cures. Saving children.®
