St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital
No Child Should Die In The Dawn Of Life
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital opened its doors on February 4, 1962, based on Danny's dream that "no child should die in the dawn of life." Since then, we’ve made incredible strides in childhood cancer research. We’ve helped improve the survival rate of childhood cancer from 20% to 80%. And ALL, the disease with a virtual death sentence in 1962, now has a survival rate of 94 percent.
Today, we’re a world leader in developing new, improved treatments for children with cancer, and we create more clinical trials for cancer than any other children's hospital. We freely share those breakthroughs, and every child saved at St. Jude means doctors and scientists worldwide can use that knowledge to save thousands more children.
And still today as when we opened our doors, families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food – because all they should worry about is helping their child live.
Danny Thomas passed away in 1991, but he left us with an enduring legacy and commitment to saving the lives of children everywhere. We won’t stop until no child dies from cancer.
Tunnel To Towers
Additional Information
Stephen Siller grew up steeped in St. Francis of Assisi's philosophy that “while we have time, let us do good.” This philosophy guided Siller through life and became his legacy after the firefighter died tragically on Sept. 11, 2001, trying to save the lives of those trapped in the towers of the World Trade Center.
The Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation (named after the path Stephen took on foot to help) honors those who put their lives on the line to protect our country. This takes the form of several programs, including building Smart Homes for veterans that have been severely injured.
The International Assoc. of Safety Health Environmental Professionals (IASHEP) is a supporter of the foundation.
