About Shop 4 Hope, St. Jude and Epsilon Sigma Alpha...

Our Mission

To provide people with the opportunity to raise money for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital while shopping online and spread the word about St. Jude so that the parents and doctors of any child in need of its services will be aware of its existence.

About Shop 4 Hope

When we discovered that two of our favorite things could be done at the same time, shopping online and raising money for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, we decided to put them both together. We strive to create a fun and easy place for you to shop. Shop 4 Hope was founded in 2006 by Epsilon Sigma Alpha member Karin Casazza.

About You

Shop 4 Hope gives you the chance to help the children at St. Jude while doing what you normally would anyway, shopping online. There is no extra cost to you and no personal information will be gathered.

Now you can feel good about spending money on-line! After all it is to help the children, right!?

Shop 4 Hope will donate all the proceeds to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

About St. Jude Children's Research Hospital

St. Jude is unlike any other pediatric treatment and research facility anywhere. Discoveries made there have completely changed how the world treats children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases.

St. Jude is where some of today's most gifted researchers are able to do more science, more quickly. Where doctors across the world send their toughest cases and most vulnerable patients. Where no one pays for treatment beyond what is covered by insurance, and those without insurance are never asked to pay. St. Jude has built America's 3rd-largest health-care charity, with a model that keeps the costs down and the funds flowing, so the science never stops.

All patients accepted for treatment at St. Jude are treated without regard to the family's ability to pay.
