Every child deserves a chance to live their best life and celebrate every moment. But in many countries around the world, only 1 out of 5 children who develop cancer will survive. Conscious Step partner St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is on a mission to change that. They are leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases, all without families having to pay a dime. 

When St. Jude opened in 1962, childhood cancer was largely considered incurable. But since then, their work treating patients and conducting cutting-edge research has helped push the overall survival rate from 20% to more than 80%. Their patients receive the customized care they need to treat childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases, no matter what barriers they may face.

For example, a common barrier for families with sick children in this country is the ability to pay for lengthy and expensive treatments not covered by traditional insurance plans. But thanks to donor support, families can receive cutting-edge treatments not covered by insurance at St. Jude, at no cost. They will never receive a bill for treatment, travel, housing or food — allowing them to focus on helping their child live. 

When you support St. Jude through our collection that fights childhood cancer, you can help make cures possible for kids with cancer and other life-threatening diseases. Together, we can save more lives.
