When you give to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital you help children like Phoenix, who developed a rare form of eye cancer at 17 months old, see another day.

Watch Phoenix journey now! Oh and yes you'll need some tissues.

"I did not know that you don't receive a bill. But when I found out, I danced." — Phoenix's grandmother. Programs like Sunday of Hope help ensure that families never receive a bill for treatment, travel, housing or food — because all a family should worry about is helping their child live.

Wow! that story gives me the chills. Little Phoenix may very well be cured and he didn't loose his eyesight and that was only because of the generous support of people just like you giving of their hearts to St. Jude to continue to fight childhood cancer and eventually eradicate it from the earth.

That will such a happy day, but for the time being St. Jude needs your helps to continue to work tirelessly in finding that cure.
