Donate your Voice: Give the Gift of Hope to Children Battling Cancer

’Tis the season of giving and no gift carries more weight than the gift of hope.

I often write about people who have been denied health care due to a lack of medical insurance or an insurer’s refusal to pay for treatment. How utterly refreshing to be able to lend my support to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in its mission to give the gift of hope.

St. Jude is the only pediatric cancer research center where families never pay for treatment not covered by insurance. No child is ever denied treatment because of the family’s inability to pay. That’s why children from all 50 states and from around the world have sought treatment at St. Jude, a research center that freely shares its research with the global medical community.

Now you can give the gift of hope, too, by signing the pledge, “Give victims of childhood cancer and leukemia hope this holiday season.”

Give thanks for the healthy kids in your life, and give to those who are not. Please “Support children with cancer and other deadly diseases.”

I just signed the pledges and donated my voice, via Facebook and Twitter status updates, in support of kids battling cancer at St. Jude. You can do the same by visiting the St. Jude “I give my voice” page and clicking on the Facebook/Twitter logos to sign in and update your status. In seconds, you can share your support with the whole world!

‘Tis the season… by donating your voice you, too, can help spread the word and give the gift of hope this holiday season. Thank you.
