Who you are directly supporting by attending our event

  • Each year, nearly 400,000 children worldwide will be diagnosed with cancer. United by the vision of a world where children are free from cancer and blood diseases, Cook Children’s and St. Jude collaborate on groundbreaking research and clinical trials to ensure all children receive the chance at surviving their battle with pediatric cancer.

    St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis, TN leads research trials, working with researchers around the country, including physicians at Cook Children’s, to improve outcomes for patients.

    Cook Children’s hematology and oncology program implements new findings in real time, treating pediatric cancer patients right here in Fort Worth, TX.

    Their tireless and free collaboration is making a major difference for our most vulnerable children and we have a chance to stand in support of their efforts! Show up, donate and spread the word.

  • St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases.

    Its purpose is clear: Finding cures. Saving children.® It is the only National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center devoted solely to children.

    When St. Jude opened in 1962, childhood cancer was largely considered incurable. Since then, St. Jude has helped push the overall survival rate from 20% to more than 80%, and it won't stop until no child dies from cancer.

    St. Jude shares the breakthroughs it makes to help doctors and researchers at local hospitals and cancer centers around the world improve the quality of treatment and care for even more children. Because of generous donors, families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food, so they can focus on helping their child live.

  • WHY COOK CHILDREN’S

    The Cook Children’s Promise is to do everything for the child, and that Promise is never more evident than in our nationally recognized hematology and oncology (HO) center. Our experts collaborate with organizations around the world to expand our research opportunities and bring the best therapies back to our patients.

    As a local, North Texas institution for over 100 years, our legacy of care goes above and beyond the lifesaving treatments we offer for children fighting cancer and their families.

    Cook Children’s patients cuddle therapy pups, create music in the recording studio, and take time to just be a kid through our full calendar of unique activities and events. These moments of magic are what continue to fuel results for patients- but we can’t do it alone!

    Cook Children’s relies on generosity of the community to help us fulfill our Promise to these patients. Your support helps provide the best care and most innovative programs to the patients and families we serve every day.
