St. Jude & Kay Jewelers
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital opened its doors in 1962 with the mission that "no child should die in the dawn of life."  Founded by late entertainer Danny Thomas, St. Jude specializes in helping children from all over the world overcome cancer and other catastrophic diseases. In 1999, we were looking for a way to give back to the communities in which we operate across the country. Inspired by the courage of the kids of St. Jude, we embarked on our partnership in caring with St. Jude.
This year, we presented St. Jude with a check for $4.15 million, our largest donation ever. Thanks to the generosity of our customers and our team members, we have raised more than $22 million in just 11 years. Our most recently completed commitment is the Kay Kafe a $16 million expansion and renovation of the hospital cafeteria our largest commitment to date. The Kay Kafe opened in June 2008.
