Help Graden Help the Kids of St. Jude!

Dear Friends & Family,

I am participating in the 12th Annual Dick Hiley/St. Jude Bass Classic to benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital on May 1-2 in Wabasha, MN. I am contacting you to ask for your support of my participation in this cause to raise much-needed funds for St. Jude.

St. Jude is the single largest center in the US for the research and treatment of childhood catastrophic diseases. When St. Jude first opened in 1962, a child with leukemia had virtually no chance for survival. Today, thanks to the research at St. Jude over 94% of children with the most common form of leukemia, (ALL) will survive. St. Jude has treated children from all 50 states and from around the world. No child is ever turned away because of a family’s inability to pay for the lifesaving care of St. Jude, which is why fundraising efforts like the Dick Hiley/St. Jude Bass Classic are vital to the success of the hospital.

This fishing tournament is by far the most inspirational and unique event I participate in throughout the year and offers inspiration to all participating anglers. The hospital is working against the clock to save the lives of these children but need our help to make it happen.

If you would like to contribute to this great cause please visit www.mystjudeevent.org/gradenh.

Please call with any questions and thank you in advance for your support!

For the kids,

Graden Hansen
