ALSAC (American Lebanese Syric Associated Charities)

ALSAC (American Lebanese Syrian Associated Charities) is the fundraising and awareness organization for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, founded by entertainer Danny Thomas. Its mission is to support the hospital’s work in researching and treating childhood cancer and other diseases, ensuring families never receive a bill for treatment, travel, or housing. ALSAC raises funds through donations, events, and campaigns, effectively channeling resources to advance medical research and patient care. It operates independently but closely linked with St. Jude, enabling the hospital to focus solely on saving children’s lives without financial burden.
