St. Jude treats kids with cancer and never charges families for treatment, travel, housing, or food. If your child gets accepted to St. Jude, you will not pay for anything they provide.

No bills, ever.Most patients are accepted based on their ability to enroll in an open clinical trial. Some trials only accept children who have not started treatment yet.

If you live within 180 miles of Memphis, your child may be accepted regardless of clinical trial availability. They also have 8 affiliate clinics across the country that might be closer to you.Your child's doctor needs to refer them to St. Jude.

Contact the Physician Patient Referral Office at 📞 1-888-226-4343 or email . You can also submit an online referral form.

The timeline for acceptance varies depending on open trials, how fast records arrive, and other factors.St. Jude treats most diseases for patients 21 and under.

Some diseases have different age limits. They also provide free second opinions and consultations even if your child is not accepted for treatment.

For brain tumors, contact their Brain Tumor Team directly at 📞 901-595-2544.

I highly recommend St. Jude. They took care of my daughter Cassy and literally saved her life. Dr. Jessica Bell and her team in Pediatric Hematology-Oncology were amazing. They were so kind, so patient, so caring. Every single person on that team went above and beyond for us. St. Jude is the reason I built this website. After everything they did for our family, I wanted to pay it forward and help other families find the resources they need. If you can, please donate to St. Jude. It really does help families like ours. Thank you St. Jude and thank you to the entire team for giving us our daughter back. — Edgar Robledo, Father of Cassy
