In celebration of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, supporters of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital from across the country, including the Las Vegas community, will be participating in the virtual St. Jude Walk/Run in September.

This year participants can walk, run and fundraise at their own pace and distance in their own neighborhoods.

In addition, the St. Jude Walk/Run mobile app, is available in the Apple app store and on Google Play, to provide a unique experience to participants that includes a virtual tour of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and some engagement opportunities using augmented reality.

Funds raised through events like this help ensure families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food – because all a family should worry about is helping their child live.
