Please join us in congratulating Donna Schad the newest recipient of the Champion Donor Award. Donna has served on the McLean County Golf Classic for St. Jude committee for 17 years but played 46 out of the 48 outings! Donna spent many hours on the silent auction year after year making sure everything was perfect.

The Champion Donor Award is given out by the St. Jude Midwest Leadership Board to anyone who goes above and beyond to help ensure that Danny Thomas’ dream comes true: that no child dies from cancer. We know that this dream will only be made possible with the generous support of our amazing volunteers and donors. With that in mind, we give a memento to those who exhibit dedication and commitment to the mission of St. Jude so that they can do everything they can to not only save children’s lives, but also preserve their quality of life as they move past treatment and grow up, becoming survivors of the diseases that once threatened their lives.
