Home Hello, I'm Marlo Thomas. I want to tell you about some very important friends of mine - the children here at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Today our doctors and nurses, the scientists and researchers, and the children who walk through our doors are carrying out his dream. Through the years, we've made remarkable progress in the battle to save lives. Yet for all our accomplishments, there is more that needs to be done.
Every child deserves a chance at a life filled with love, laughter, friends and family.
We are working to find the cures that will give these youngsters a fighting chance. When a child or parent faces an uncertain disease like cancer, they can find hope at St. Jude - a place where miracles can and do happen. I would like to share with you real-life stories of courage, determination, and hope. You'll get a closer look into the real-life drama that these children endure each day. All rights reserved.
