About St. Jude Cure4Kids for Kids

The St. Jude Cancer Education for Children Program is an educational outreach initiative of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. It helps school children, their parents and teachers understand the basic science and treatment of cancer. Through the use of age-appropriate content, the program focuses on three main objectives:

addressing common misconceptions about childhood cancer,

instilling healthy habits in children that can help prevent the development of adult cancer, and

increasing children's overall interest in science and scientific careers.

All educational on-site activities are led by St. Jude faculty and staff. All the educational material was developed by a multi-disciplinary team composed of St. Jude faculty and staff with the collaboration of national experts. St. Jude works with schoolteachers and administrators to implement this program free of charge.
