Opened in 1962,
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is the single largest center in the
United States for the treatment and research of pediatric cancer and other
childhood catastrophic diseases.
In 1972, ESA
responded to Danny Thomas’s request for support for the kids by adopting St.
Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis, TN, as one of its major
philanthropic projects. Since that
time, members have been actively involved in supporting the hospital in a
multitude of ways including volunteering at the facility and participating in
and sponsoring fundraising events.
