Saving children
from around
the world
When Azalea’s family learned she had
cancer, they were referred to St. Jude
Children’s Research Hospital® from their
home in Jamaica. They were familiar with
St. Jude and knew it was the right place
for their tenacious little girl. Treatments
invented at St. Jude have helped push
the overall childhood cancer survival
rate from 20% when we opened to more
than 80% today, and we won’t stop until
no child dies from cancer.

"We knew St. Jude
was the best possible
place for a child with
cancer, and that’s what
we wanted for her. ’’
