Philanthropy is essential for St. Jude Medical Center to continue offering the highest quality, compassionate care in response to community needs. Donations to the St. Jude Memorial Foundation make it possible for the medical center to expand facilities, purchase new technologies and revitalize services.

The Memorial Foundation offers you various opportunities for supporting St. Jude that help you match your philanthropic and financial goals with the needs of the hospital. Your gift can express your appreciation for St. Jude’s exceptional care, pay tribute to a special person, or honor the memory of a loved one.

Gifts of Cash
A cash gift, made by cash, check or credit card, is the simplest and most common form of contribution. This type of gift provides a tax deduction on your itemized tax return for the full amount given.

Appreciated Assets
The Memorial Foundation accepts donations of appreciated securities or real estate. Such gifts offer tax advantages to the donor (more info...)

Planned Gifts
Planned giving presents options for the donor to support St. Jude while meeting personal long-term financial and estate goals. Depending on the type of deferred gift, from the simple bequest to the charitable gift annuity or charitable remainder trust, benefits may include increased income, immediate income tax deduction, as well as capital gain, estate and gift tax avoidance (more info...)

Capital Campaign Gifts
Gifts to the Campaign for Excellence support construction of the five-story Southwest Patient Tower and the vital services inside: Emergency, Cardiac and Vascular Catheterization, Critical Care, Maternity, and Neonatal Intensive Care. Campaign contributions offer special recognition and naming opportunities that acknowledge donors’ participation in helping St. Jude build the future of healthcare for our communities.
