St Jude Clinic Affiliate Tour
In July 2018, we started making deliveries for the Children of Niswonger Children's Hospital, in Johnson City, Tennessee.
While making these deliveries we learned that housed inside the facility was a St Jude Affiliate Clinic. This clinic is
one of only 8 in the United States.
You may be familiar with St Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, but if you are like many, you were unaware that
they have 8 affiliate locations in the US for children to be treated closer to home.
On October 15th our founder and a volunteer will embark on a 2600 mile tour of these facilities. They will travel from
Northeast Tennessee to each location and deliver Blessing Bags and donations.
Your help is needed to be able to make this possible. Friends of Suzanne is in need of both monetary and "in kind"
donations. We are also looking for volunteers near the area's we will be visiting to help collect items or be a "staging"
area!
We will be visiting
1. Huntsville, Alabama
2. Baton Rouge, Louisiana
3. Shreveport, Louisiana
4. Tulsa, Oklahoma
5. Springfield, Missouri
6. Peoria, Illinois
7. Charlotte, NC
8. Memphis, Tennessee - Headquarters for St Jude
9. Johnson City, Tennessee - Home base for Friends of Suzanne
Please contact any of our board members or volunteers to help with this journey.
