Australian Tour 2024

We are bringing you a story to remember from St Jude’s in Tanzania.

This February and March,  a team from St Jude’s is coming to reconnect with our wonderful friends and supporters Down Under.

We bring fresh updates and stories from our founder, Gemma Sisia, and two of our wonderful alumni, Suleiman and Winnie. Learn about our growth in the last 20 years, impact, and inspiring stories from our alumni. Suleiman will be sharing his inspiring journey to achieve his lifelong dream of becoming a doctor, whilst Winnie is a full-circle story, currently working full-time at St Jude’s!

Check out our itinerary and event schedule to find out where and when our delegation will be speaking. We look forward to reconnecting with you!
