We congratulate our partner St. Judes Children’s Research Hospital for winning The Earnies Grand Prix Award. Through their campaign entitled Hoops for St. Jude, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital designed a program to drive sports fans within their social networks to their campaign web site to learn more about their mission to help children fight cancer. We are proud to be involved with St. Jude and support their cause!
