✨Committee Stories: Part 3!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Hi, I’m Ali! I have had the honor of serving on the TTSJ Committee since January 2016 and as Recruitment Co-Chair since 2017.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My connection to St. Jude Hospital truly started fifteen years ago when I had to opportunity to participate on the St. Jude Up ‘til Dawn Committee. 

At that point in my life, my grandmother had recently passed away from cancer, so I embraced the opportunity to support a mission that raised funds and awareness for cancer research and other life-threatening illnesses.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s so hard to fathom anyone going through an illness like this-let alone a child. I’m incredibly passionate about this cause because St. Jude Hospital freely shares its research with hospitals across the world-which means more children, families and friends are celebrating milestones together-both big and small every day. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Having events like our Toast to St. Jude gala helps to support that mission 😊
