Treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20 percent to more than 80 percent since the doors to the hospital opened more than 50 years ago. St. Jude won’t stop until no child dies from cancer.
“The St. Jude Heart of Fashion gala has become one of the most exciting charity events in Las Vegas. This year will be no exception”, said Co-Chair Lisa Szyc. “The bar has been set higher than ever, the need is greater than ever and the community is rallying stronger than ever.
