Childhood Cancer: Treating Children Around the Globe

In today’s episode, we’ll discuss St. Jude Global, an innovative endeavor at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital to take lifesaving cancer treatments to children around the world. With the launch of St. Jude Global, the research hospital has set an ambitious goal to cure at least 60% of children with the most common cancers worldwide by 2030.

This podcast could have been so much more with the candlepower the producer and institution bring to it. If you want to hear some pretty banal observations into charity—wouldn’t go as far as calling them innovations or insights—punctuated by marketing from the sponsor (Schwab!) then this is the podcast for you. If you are looking for a better example of serious treatment of important topics in philanthropy, check out Tiny Spark with Amy Costello and Frederica Boswell. It is a shame that philanthropy has such a dearth of good, consistent content.
