St. Jude Children’s Hospital and USAPA – Making Lives Better for Children

Make 2018 count and create your own fundraiser for St. Jude through your next tournament or gathering and help our USAPA fundraising efforts grow! Learn more about pickleball fundraising ideas at https://usapickleball.org/strategic-affiliations/.

Every dollar you raise makes a real impact in the lives of St. Jude kids and their families. Below are examples of where the USAPA’s fundraising efforts are going to help St. Jude kids:

• $100 can help cover the cost of crutches sized especially for children to help them maneuver during treatment.
• $250 can help cover the cost of a child receiving a red blood cell transfusion.
• $500 can help cover one hour of physical therapy to help ensure every child treated at St. Jude enjoys the highest quality of life possible.
• $750 can help cover the cost of two days of oxygen for a St. Jude patient. During treatment, St. Jude patients may need oxygen to help their bodies function properly and aid in healing.
• $1,000 can ensure that parents who have relocated to Memphis and live in one of our short-term housing facilities, can obtain basic essentials, like shampoos, razors, deodorant, toothbrushes and lotion that they might have forgotten at home.

We are looking forward to another great year partnering with the USAPA. Because of partners like you, St. Jude is able to fulfill our mission that families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food – because all a family should worry about is helping their child live.
