Riggs Distler is Proud to Support the St. Jude Walk/Run – Philadelphia

Posted on August 21, 2023 in News
We are proud to support St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital for the fourth time as a Champion Level Sponsor in 2023. Since 2019, Riggs Distler’s Helping Hands has raised over $234,000 through fundraising and sponsorships, not including this year’s fundraising efforts.
We support St. Jude because:
- St. Jude shares the breakthroughs it makes, and every child saved at St. Jude means doctors and scientists worldwide can use that knowledge to save thousands more children.
- Treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20% to more than 80% since it opened in 1962. And St. Jude won’t stop until no child dies from cancer.
- St. Jude creates more clinical trials than any other children’s hospital.
- St. Jude turns laboratory discoveries into lifesaving treatment that benefit patients.
- Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food—so they can focus on helping their child live.
