When you sponsor an academic scholarship for a St Jude’s student or graduate you are helping to fund their education.
Sponsorship provides a St Jude’s student with educational materials, school and boarding uniforms, hot nutritious meals and a safe, clean living environment with reliable electricity and water – everything required for a successful education!
Sponsorship of a Community Service volunteer or Beyond St Jude's scholar covers tuition fees, learning resources and living expenses, to help them begin their lives outside of school.
As a sponsor, you will receive regular updates from St Jude’s including academic updates, photos and personalised letters. You can even write to them in return!
You can choose to become a sole sponsor, co-sponsor or shared sponsor.

St Jude's offers alternatives for those who aren't able to sponsor
Not everyone can commit to sponsoring an academic scholarship – and that’s ok! If you can’t sponsor but still want to contribute, consider making a donation. You can make a monthly recurring donation, or simply make a once-off contribution.
Any contribution helps St Jude’s provide free, quality education.
