Instead of running RSS sponsorships this month, I’m raising money in support of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital as part of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Click here to learn more and donate.
In addition to the fully-paid care that St. Jude provides for its patients and their families, St. Jude is a world-class research institution:
The research resources and core facilities at St. Jude are truly extraordinary. From state-of-the-art technologies to expert support, our shared resources are designed to expand the capabilities of each research group, freeing investigators to pursue innovative ideas.
Talented staff work with St. Jude investigators as expert hands, consultants, or full collaborators. In-depth training is available for researchers interested in adopting new technologies. Our unique funding model allows costs to be kept low.
This research means that the doctors who have been treating our son’s cancer for eight years have the world’s best knowledge at their fingertips. What they know about his disease comes from the work done at St. Jude and her research partners.
This is evident when on St. Jude’s campus here in Memphis. Most of the buildings are research facilities. They have a supercomputer on-site and countless labs. It’s all to not only help the kids at St. Jude, but kids around the world.
It’s inspiring, and amazing to be a part of something so big.
This month, I’m raising money for the hospital instead of selling sponsorships here on 512. I’d love if you would donate.
