MEMPHIS, Tenn.–Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated, announced today its newest and largest philanthropic commitment to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital®. The sorority has pledged to raise $750,000 through 2028 to support groundbreaking initiatives in pediatric healthcare and research. This announcement comes during Sickle Cell Awareness Month, a time when both organizations actively advocate for increased education, support, and visibility around sickle cell disease.
The sorority’s renewed dedication continues a partnership that began in 2013 and has raised more than $1 million to support St. Jude patients and families. This new $750,000 pledge reflects a deep commitment to helping raise survival rates for children in the U.S. and around the world. The effort aligns with Zeta Phi Beta’s shared mission of improving outcomes for children everywhere.
“We are profoundly grateful for the unwavering dedication of the women of Zeta Phi Beta, who continue to lead with purpose and service,” said Ike Anand, President and CEO of ALSAC, the fundraising and awareness organization for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. “Their renewed commitment helps ensure that families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food—so they can focus on helping their child live.”…
