Dear Friends of St. Jude,

THANK YOU to all of you who made it out to our 3rd Annual Summer Kickoff held on May 16th at Pier 66 Maritime: The Frying Pan. We were able to raise over $3,000 for the kids of St. Jude through a day of food, fun, and friends! A special thank you to the Frank Stalloners, who provided the music for the event. We hope to see you at future upcoming events. In the meantime, please enjoy some images from the summer kickoff.

For the kids,

NYC Friends of St. Jude

Thanks to a special Target promotion, Bullseye Gives, Facebook users have a new opportunity to help the kids of St. Jude. Target has earmarked $3 million to be distributed to St. Jude and other charity partners. Facebook users will determine how much of the $3 million each charity receives. 

For two weeks starting May 10, Target will feature St. Jude and nine other national charities on its Facebook page. During this time, visitors to www.facebook.com/target can vote once a day for the charity of their choice. On May 26, Target will announce the final donations to each charity, based on the percentage of the vote each charity received. So if St. Jude receives 50 percent of the votes, the Target gift to St. Jude would be $1.5 million.

The Bullseye Gives promotion runs from May 10-25. Go to www.facebook.com/target every day to cast your vote for St. Jude. Tell a friend and help the kids of St. Jude.
