Mission Statement
The mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is to advance cures, and means of prevention, for pediatric catastrophic diseases through research and treatment. Consistent with the vision of our founder Danny Thomas, no child is denied treatment based on race, religion or a family's ability to pay.
Description
In keeping with the promise of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital founder Danny Thomas to freely share research findings with the entire world, St. Jude has an extensive media relations program to share science, research and medical discoveries, along with patient care treatment advances, with doctors, patients, parents and the general public.
The hospital’s fundraising organization, ALSAC, also works with media and the public to share information about the hospital’s treatment and research programs, and how the public can help advance this work.
