In Honor of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, the Community Bank Will Participate in the Annual St. Jude Walk/Run 5k.
LAS VEGAS, September 1, 2021— Lexicon Bank, Nevada’s community-focused banking partner, is proud to spotlight St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital ® this September during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Lexicon Bank will be 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.
The St. Jude Walk/Run 5k is an inspiring, family-friendly event that unites people across the nation behind the lifesaving mission of St. Jude to find cures and save children.
This partnership with St. Jude is a part of the Lexicon Bank Community Spotlight program, a monthly initiative that highlights local non-profit organizations that are making a difference in the Southern Nevada community.
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.
“We are excited to partner with St. Jude and support an organization that is so critical to saving children’s lives not only in Southern Nevada but worldwide,” said Irma McDow, Lexicon Bank VP and Branch Manager. “It is important for us to bring attention to Childhood Cancer Awareness Month as it is a cause close to the hearts of many on our team and board.”
