Yes, and I donate through Amazon's smile website. Same Amazon stuff but they donate to your charity based on how much you spend

Yes. It's our charity. Unless we are connected to another cause, it is our only charity.

Yes we do. My son is a former patient. Folks, I can assure you that if you donate to STJ, you are certainly not wasting your $. STJ is an amazing organization that saved my son's life. It's been 8 years since he was diagnosed.

Thank you to anyone who has ever donated.

It is truly a great place worthy of whatever you can donate. Unfortunately they can't cure everyone, but what they provide is enormous. Both for the patients and their families.

Yes. My sister was a patient and lived. A classmate was a patient for many years but did not make it. Many others from my hometown have been there.

A friend worked there for a while doing lab work. It should make you feel better as a donor that she said they worked the hell out of them.

Shriners Hospital in Shreveport


Shrines are another great organization. They have an annual Christmas party for the kids who were treated in their hospitals.

But then you get a xxxxxxxx of mail. I deal with it.

Yes, I've been contributing monthly to St Jude for about a year. I called them to let them know that there was no need to continue soliciting money from me. They were wasting their resources.

Good to know it yielded positive results. I'm an occasional donor.

They raffle off a house every year in my area so I typically buy a few tickets to support them.
