Donation To St. Jude´s Children's Research Hospital

The mission of St. Jude’s Research Hospital is to advance cures and means of prevention, for pediatric catastrophic diseases. The hospital cost roughly about two million dollars to run a day, and no family that is in this hospital pays for bills. It is a nonprofit medical corporation, that assists in travel, housing and food. Even if it is located in Memphis, Tennessee, it has treated children from over all 50 states and around the world. It is named number one children’s cancer hospital in the United States.

The charity I picked to receive the $1000 is Matthew 25 Ministries. It is a disaster relief charity and much more. It’s location is 11060 Kenwood Rd, Blue Ash, OH 45242. I picked this charity because it is a worthy organization that provides resources to those who are in need of food, clean water and cleaning supplies, etc. This charity helps prevent diseases by supplying clean water to rural places. It also helps improve the economy of these places by teaching the people skills and sustainable practices.

The Iowa Donor Network (IDN) is near and dear to my heart because when my brother died at fourteen his organs were donated and have helped so many people. One lady named Robin who was a critical diabetic got my brother’s kidney and pancreas. An adoption agency would not let Robin adopt any babies because of her condition. However, there were two babies that were highly addicted to crack cocaine that had been sexually and physically abused. Nobody wanted them, but Robin did. After Robin received my brother’s transplant she was able to give these children a life that no one else would give them. This has taught me how important being an organ donor can be. Not only am I an organ donor on my license, but through advertising with the IDN, I am

In 1981 the Southern Proverty Law Center filed lawssuits because of a lynching of a black young man this lawsuit have helped decrease the violence caused by the KKK. Suing these KKK groups permanently putting an end to them due to taking of funds. To produce awareness regarding the different hate groups near and far so people can help the world of hate. To have the knowledge about what goes on around them as well in other areas is benefical to everyone of their surrondings. To help end hate I would teach my children along with those who are involved in my life to love thy neighbor. Not saying I nor anyone else have to love a person in order not to hate but better said treat people how yhou would want to be treated. I would monitor what

Scattered throughout many cities in the U.S., one will find a variety of nonprofit organizations that assist and work with individuals and families suffering from addictions, homelessness, and poverty. A crucial part of the safety net, these organizations rely on a mix of public and private funding to fulfill their goals, which range widely across a number of constituencies and needs. Some of them are branches of international organizations, such as the Salvation Army, while others are often agencies with local roots. Some

I would use the assistance that this foundation awarded me as a way to further my education and be able to help others. I hope to learn as much as possible, about myself and the global community. The opportunity would be limitless and fully

Helping good ole Kentucky would also be up on my list. I’d fund training for one of the friendliest dog breeds and my personal favorite ,the Golden Retriever to be service dogs and help the people so they can have just as a mobile life as the rest of us and can see the wonderful world God has created.

If giving these gifts were a surprise, I would get the opportunity to see the genuine smiles appear on their face, which means so much more than a photo-op or a forced thank you. My day would be made. After indulging in such activities, I would probably spend the rest of my day traveling, as transportation is practically free since no one could see me. I’d probably catch a flight to NYC, and explore the enormous city. The great thing about being invisible in such a large city is that you can avoid any small talk with people that try to sell you things. I would love to sit in to watch an intense surgery, or go into a laboratory and observe the activities. The medical field interests me so much, as the so many advancements in both surgical techniques and medicine itself is absolutely fascinating. To think that our species alone has actually invented the technology to sustain our lives even longer. I believe getting to get the opportunity to watch these literal live savers in action is completely

Like Tupac Shakur once said “I'm not saying I'm gonna change the world, but I guarantee that I will spark the brain that will change the world”(brainyquotes). With winning the lottery, I could open good schools in communities where the schooling is either poor or it’s not free. I could give clean water to people in places where they don't have water. I could give food and shelter to those who don't have it. A couple weeks ago, my family and I went on a trip to Dallas,Texas for a family reunion and we stopped on this bridge and there was a homeless man standing with a sign. I saw the man and I gave him $20 which was all the money in my purse because I felt that the man needed it more than me. I realize that going to Clayton instead of some poor city school and living in middle class America and having both my parents in my life that I have it better than many of people, not only in Saint Louis, but in the world. I could be going to work everyday as a 15 year old rather than school, living in some small house. The fact that 1 in 6 americans struggles to get enough to eat alone is enough to make me want to give back. I think the first thing i would do with my money would be to open a foundation to find the cure of different types of cancer. More specifically stomach and breast cancers, because those are the cancers that affect me and my family the most. So I think

If money and resources were available to you in unlimited amounts, what would you choose to do?

St. Jude has been providing free care to their patients from when they opened 40 years ago. They are able to do this through donations, as well as a few stores even participate in the “Thanks and Giving season”(“Domino's®” ). This year is Dominos 14th year participating in this and their campaign runs from Oct. 23, 2017, through Jan. 7, 2018. They are running a special package deal that consists of “two medium one-topping Hand Tossed pizzas, a 16-piece order of Parmesan Bread Bites, an eight-piece order of recently-introduced Cinnamon Bread Twists, a two-liter of Coca-Cola® and a $1 donation to St. Jude – for $19.99” (“Domino's®”). Contrarily, if that is too much food then when placing their order they can round up their total and give

Currently, an animal is euthanized for about $65 (Kortis, 2007). When you multiply this figure by the thousands of animals being euthanized, it will quickly total up to huge reductions in cost for the publicly funded animal control agencies. The clinic offers cost-effective services and carry out high volume surgical techniques. The clinic also offers the homeless animals for adoption, provided the interested parties meet the requirements set by the

helping the needy, and generally making the world a better place to live in, I have already taken many steps

The first ever human heart transplant took place just over 48 years ago on 3 December, 1967. Accoording to sahistory.org.za, the historical surgeory was performed inside the CharlesSaint theatre at the Groote Schuur Hospital in Cape town, South Africa. The surgeory was perfomed by a South African doctor named, Dr. Christiaan Barnard. According to wikipedia.org/wiki/Christiaan_Barnard, after matriculation, Barnard went off and studied medicine at the medical school of one of South Africa’s most credible universities, the University of Cape Town. He worked as a general practitioner and received his master’s degree as well as a doctorate in medicine. He also obtained a scholarship from the University of Minnesota, to do training regarding cardiothoracic

If an animal shelter was dangerously low on supplies for their animals then someone needs to help them out. Giving donations to them would be the right thing to do. It would be awful if you just had to throw the animals out on the street after being taken care of for so long. They wouldn't know what to do or how to take care of themselves. The other option would be to throw all of them in the pound and we all know what happens whenever poor helpless animals get thrown in the pound. Usually the animals get put down, as in killed, whenever they do not get adopted in a certain amount of time.
