St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital

July 2, 2020 | Written By Lexicon Bank

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 their founder Danny Thomas, no child is denied treatment based on race, religion or a family’s ability to pay.

This September, Lexicon Bank is proud to spotlight St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, a leader in the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. In honor of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, Lexicon Bank is supporting St. Jude with a cash donation, as an official sponsor of the 30 ways in 30 days initiative, and by participating in their virtual Walk/Run 5k on September 25th.

Treatments invented at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, where families never receive a bill for anything, have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20% to more than 80% since it opened more than 50 years ago. Through continued research and treatment, St. Jude is dedicated to making sure no child dies from cancer.
