American Internet Tech donates to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital (April 2018)
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
St. Jude has the world's best survival rates for the most aggressive childhood cancers, and treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20 percent to 80 percent since they opened more than 50 years ago.
St. Jude is working to drive the overall survival rate for childhood cancer to 90 percent in the next decade. St. Jude freely shares the breakthroughs they make, and every child saved at St. Jude means doctors and scientists worldwide can use that knowledge to save thousands more children.
Because childhood cancers make up less than 1 percent of all cancers diagnosed each year, according to the American Cancer Society, drug makers don't have much of an incentive to spend money on developing new drugs and treatments. Pediatric cancer research receives just a fraction of the money that adult cancer research gets.
The founder of St. Jude, believed that "no child should die in the dawn of life" and American Internet Tech shares the same belief and shows it by making one more donation to St.Jude.
We can all help increase the pediatric cancer research funds!
