The Pittsburgh arm of ALSAC/St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is excited to invite engaged and committed individuals to join the Pittsburgh Walk/Run planning committee. The annual Pittsburgh St. Jude Walk/Run will take place in September 2019. The family friendly walk/run invites supporters of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital to come together for a morning of fun and celebration as we support the kids of St. Jude.
The Pittsburgh St. Jude Walk/Run planning committee is comprised of members of the Pittsburgh community from various sectors. Volunteers use their skills to promote the event by seeking event sponsorship, encouraging participation, soliciting in-kind donations, and stewarding the St. Jude brand by advocating for the mission of the organization--finding cures and saving children.
Committee members devote an average of 4-5 hours per month, including one monthly meeting as a group (in person or by phone). The committee has the decision making power to put a local spin on this national (and global) endeavor--to ensure that no child shall die in the dawn of life. The PittsburghA St. Jude Walk/Run planning Committee is supported by a local ALSAC/St. Jude representative.
If interested in learning more about how to get involved with these efforts, contact Emily Harrison at emily.harrison@stjude.org or 412-535-6119.
