“We want to make this an annual event giving families a chance to get out and support St. Jude’s. Costumes are encouraged,” said supporter and organizer Dinah Smith.
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, founded in 1962, is a pediatric treatment and research facility focused on children's catastrophic diseases, particularly leukemia and other cancers. The hospital costs about $2.8 million a day to run, but patients are not charged for their care.
Since St. Jude opened, it has increased the childhood cancer survival rate from 20% to 80%. That legacy is matched by supporters who embrace our lifesaving mission.
Registration forms are available at Discount Video in Louisville or by contacting Dinah Smith with questions or to register: dinahsmith@maxxsouth.net or 662.803.9804
