St. Jude Doing Amazing Things for Amazing People

It's that time of year again. The St. Jude Runners left Tuesday morning for the Memphis to Peoria run. They have been running for St. Jude since 1982. It's a 465 mile run which has raised 12 million dollars. St. Jude's Hospital is a medical treatment facility for children with cancer. There are no fees for the families with sick kids. It is supported by donations from all over. The runners are just a small part of the healthy heros who support St. Jude. One of our UFS family is a 33 year survivor of St. Jude's, Tammy Lepretre. Without St. Jude's, Tammy and her family could not have afforded the catistrophic costs of cancer treatment. Without treatment the world would have missed out on a very special lady. She is only one example of the thousands of children helped by St. Jude. Next weekend, July 21, 2012 the St. Jude telethone will air. Tammy and her mother, Tina, will be working at the telethon between 10pm and 11pm answering phones and taking pledges. We're asking all of our employees and customers to call Tammy and Tina and make a pledge. No amount is too small.


THANK YOU!
