Dear friend,
In September, we observe Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. This month holds deep significance for our survivors, patients, parents, and caregivers. It's a time to reflect on our strength, share stories, and raise our voices for a brighter future.
This month, we also celebrate the 5th anniversary of the Together by St. Jude™ online resource. Over the past 5 years, it has become a beacon of support, offering a space to learn, connect, and find strength.
Read the stories below. Learn about how Together is helping patients and families worldwide with trusted information. Check out our research spotlight, and get inspired by powerful stories from childhood cancer survivors.
With hope and unity,
Daniel Bastardo Blanco, PhD
