Our St. Jude Detroit Gala is the largest St. Jude Detroit fundraiser – annually raising more than a million dollars for the kids and families being treated at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

It was here, in Detroit, where Danny Thomas first prayed to St. Jude Thaddeus, “Help me find my way in life, and I will build you a shrine.”

It is here, in Detroit, where you can find families of many founding contributors, fundraisers, and board members – without whom the realization of Danny’s dream would not be possible.

And it is here, in Detroit, where we gather with a purpose that unites us: The St. Jude Detroit Gala.

Join us Saturday, January 27th and be a part of history!

Tickets and Tables available now at stjude.org/detroitgala
