St. Jude Children's Research Hospital® opened its doors in 1962 with the mission that "no child should die in the dawn of life."  Founded by late entertainer Danny Thomas, St. Jude specializes in helping children from all over the world overcome cancer and other catastrophic diseases. In 1999, we were looking for a way to give back to the communities in which we operate across the country. Inspired by the courage of the kids of St. Jude, we embarked on our partnership in caring with St.Jude.

This year, we presented St. Jude with a check for $2.4 million, our largest donation ever.  Thanks to the generosity of our customers and our team members, we have raised $10.5 million in just eight years. The $2.4 million donation also started us well on our way to our newest commitment -- the $15 million expansion and renovation of the hospital cafeteria -- our largest commitment to date.
