St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital was founded in 1962 in Memphis, Tennessee by Danny Thomas, Lemuel Diggs, and Anthony Abraham. St Jude seeks to find cures to catastrophic childhood diseases, particularly pediatric cancer. Families never receive a bill for treatment, travel, housing, or food, believing that families should only have to be concerned with the health of their child. “The mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is to advance cures, and means of prevention, for pediatric catastrophic diseases through research and treatment. Consistent with the vision of our founder Danny Thomas, no child is denied treatment based on race, religion or a family's ability to pay.”
