GREEN WORLDWIDE RAISES $25,000 FOR ST. JUDE

GREEN WORLDWIDE SHIPPING IS THRILLED TO SHARE WE RAISED $25,000 FOR ST. JUDE CHILDREN’S RESEARCH HOSPITAL IN 2024!

This year, all 16 of our offices came together to support the cause, with 141 employees—and their families—participating in the Walk/Run events across the country. Employees engaged in various fundraising efforts leading up to the event, including individual campaigns, team challenges, and outreach to clients, vendors, and friends. This collective effort helped us make a real difference for the children and families at St. Jude. Together, we’re proving that when we act as one team, we can make an incredible impact. Let’s keep walking, running, and working toward a brighter future for children everywhere.

ST. JUDE CHILDREN’S RESEARCH HOSPITAL

Jude’s mission inspires Green Worldwide Shipping year after year: no child should die in the dawn of life, and no family should ever receive a bill—no matter who they are, where they are from, or their socioeconomic background. Thanks to the efforts of countless supporters, St. Jude has helped move the childhood cancer survival rate to 80%. Together, we can help push that even further—until we reach 100%!

Jude Children’s Research Hospital provides critical treatment and research to combat childhood cancer, and a $25,000 donation from Green Worldwide Shipping directly contributes to these efforts.

Examples of how these funds are utilized to support St. Jude’s mission include:

Jude’s Pioneering Research and Patient Care Impact

• Innovative Research – St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital leads in cancer treatment innovation, with therapies like CAR-T cell therapy, which re-engineers immune cells to target cancer. Contributions also support the Pediatric Cancer Genome Project, helping identify key genetic mutations in pediatric cancers.
• Advancing Treatments – Research at St. Jude has increased the survival rate for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) to over 94%. Ongoing efforts refine treatments to improve outcomes for children fighting cancer.
• Clinical Trials – With 90% of eligible patients enrolled, St. Jude’s clinical trials give children access to the latest treatments, pushing the boundaries of medical research.
• Global Impact – St. Jude shares its findings with the global medical community at no cost, expanding the reach and impact of every dollar donated.

Comprehensive Patient Care

• Free Treatment – St. Jude covers the full cost of treatment, travel, housing, and food, with an average treatment cost of $425,000 per patient.
• Innovative Therapies – Support helps provide access to proton beam therapy, a targeted radiation treatment that costs up to $50,000 per patient but is made available through donations.

THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS POSSIBLE

To everyone who donated, participated, or cheered us on thank you! Your generosity and enthusiasm make a real difference for the children and families of St. Jude.

“Year after year our teams show dedication and commitment to fund raising for the children of St. Jude’s Research Hospital, whose unwavering commitment to no child dying in the dawn of life is an inspiration. This Year was no exception, where our employee from our offices across the country showed up with vendors, customers, and their families to run/walk. Over the past 3 years, we have been able to raise a staggering $90,000, which is an incredible feat! I am proud everyday that our teams really commit to our fundamental # 6 Make a Difference and to see us come together as a team to do it, makes it even more rewarding. I am looking forward to all we will achieve next year for such a great cause.”
