Thank You from St Jude Children's Research Hospital
« on: July 05, 2007, 10:00:00 PM »
HI Gang, Craig Billig from St Jude wanted me to post this thank you from them.

To all Trad Gang members, I want to personally thank each of you for participating in the St. Jude event this past year in raising $73,969.22!  This is a huge milestone for your organization and something that all of you should be very proud about your accomplishments!  Overall, your group has raised $146,764.69 in just the three years doing the event.  Every year gets better and better!  St. Jude will put every single penny into making the hospital and the research something that each of you are proud of, knowing that this money is saving children’s lives as I write this note.  Each of you owns a piece of the hospital in the fact that without your efforts and contributions, the hospital would not be able to continue to grow and find better cures for the children.   As many of you probably know, the demand for the research and treatment at St. Jude is growing rapidly.  The cost in conducting the research and taking care of the children who are treated at the hospital and at many of our affiliate locations is rising above $1.3 million a day!  The Trad Gang event for St. Jude is huge for the hospital and we are so delighted that it continues to grow each year!  Please keep up the great work you do for the kids!  I will stay in touch with Doug, so I will continue hear about the many great things that are happening with Trad Gang.

Sincerely,
Craig Billig
Director, ALSAC/ST. Jude Children’s Research Hospital

My Dad had a saying..."We didn't get much done today, but we'll try to do better next time!"  Meaning we did the best we could, but will try harder to do better next time.
So maybe we'll top it next year.
It was my first!  Awsome!
Thanks to everyone.
