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.

Wounded Warriors

IASHEP Believes In Supporting Those Who Served Our Country

The Wounded Warrior Project began in 2003 to help injured service members during their adjustment back home, during the fight against terrorism post September 11th, 2001. The goal here is to provide help and assistance to the people who fought overseas to preserve our freedom and our American ideology.

The Wounded Warrior Project mission is to provide services and programs to these heroes who have been wounded in battle. Since the Wounded Warrior Project was founded, they've helped more than 76,000 wounded soldiers deal with the various issues of post-war life like Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, depression, anxiety, sleep issues and physical ailments stemming from their wounds.

The Wounded Warrior Project strives to foster the most well-adjusted generation of wounded service members in American history. These warriors fought for us, so it's only natural that we support them in any way we can.

ANDREW WITT SCHOLARSHIP

IASHEP Believes In Giving A Person A Second Chance

Mr. Andrew Witt is a military member of our professional association who is incarcerated at The United States Disciplinary Barracks, located in Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. IASHEP was first introduced to Mr. Witt by an instructor named Mr. Mitch Malone. At the time and before retirement he was working with military personnel incarcerated at The United States Disciplinary Barracks. Since IASHEP has members of our professional association who served in Vietnam and were not welcomed when we came home from war, our Board of Directors has elected not to ignore other generations of military veterans who have served in our Armed Forces. They were willing to die for our country and IASHEP can give them a hand up to obtain an education which can make a difference.

Many professional safety, health and environmental organizations will not allow a person who has a felony and are looking for an opportunity to redirect their lives to become a member. Because Mitch Malone believed in these soldiers and especially Mr. Witt IASHEP wishes to help others who want a chance to start over. We now know Andrew has taken advantage of the education originally offered by IASHEP. He is a special person who studies hard, passes all of the IASHEP examinations with top awards, He obtained his Associates Degree and has received a membership into Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society. IASHEP continues to be there for him and will be there for others who have served the military and who may not have money to pay for safety, health or environmental courses.

IASHEP is proud to announce that effective January 1, 2021, IASHEP has started the Andrew Witt Scholarship. This IASHEP scholarship will offer military personnel who are incarcerated in a military facility to receive an education. IASHEP will offer four scholarships per quarter for up to $895.00 a piece to take IASHEP certified safety, health & environmental classes.
