Will you help me?

I want to do more than run — I want to help run St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. 

This is Ellie Mae.
 
 My niece Ellie Mae has been diagnosed with Lymphoblastic Lymphoma last December. She is currently in remission but still receiving treatments at St. Jude and will be for the next two years. Ellie and her family has been fortunate enough not have to pay bills for treatment and running this marathon would be my way of paying it forward and saying THANK YOU to St. Jude for helping my family out in their time of need! The road that Ellie Mae is on is long and this marathon is symbolic of what she is going through and how we all know and pray will end in pure JOY!



It costs $2 million a day to operate St. Jude. Did you know that 70% of the funds come from the public? That means your donation, no matter what the size, will help!


Thanks to donors like you, no family ever receives a bill for treatment, travel, housing or food — because all a family should worry about is helping their child live.


Thank you for helping me run St. Jude!
