    Special Report: Ukraine

    When Russia invaded Ukraine, Natalia Vilcu could hear the airstrikes. She lives in Chișinău, the capital of Moldova. Through the air, the city is less than a hundred miles from Odessa in Ukraine, one of the first places Russian forces hit.
    Natalia is the president of a foundation called Life Without Leukemia. It’s part of an effort called SAFER Ukraine. St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and ALSAC, its fundraising and awareness organization, have played a coordinating role in that effort, helping to establish an umbrella of support throughout Europe and even into North America.
    St. Jude Inspire podcast host Geoffrey Redick talks with writer Kristina Goetz about Natalia’s experiences helping pediatric cancer patients leave Ukraine to continue treatment.

  • The capital of brave people
    2022/05/10
    When Russia invaded Ukraine, the people who run the Tabletochki Charitable Foundation got to safety and then got back to work. They knew many of the people they serve — Ukrainian kids with cancer — could no longer be treated in their home country. In partnership with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and ALSAC, its fundraising and awareness organization, and their global partners, Tabletochki has helped ensure the continued care of more than 1,000 children. Hundreds have gone to hospitals throughout Europe and North America. Some are being treated at St. Jude in Memphis.
    In this episode, Olga Kudinenko and Svitlana Pugach tell us about the work of Tabletochki and their plans for the future, once the war is over.

    2021/11/23
    The video game Fallout is set in the aftermath of global nuclear annihilation, where a few people struggle to survive in Appalachia. From this virtual wasteland came a stunning real-world creation. Kenneth Vigue thought up a group of characters, found actors to portray them and produced the podcast “Chad: A Fallout 76 Story.” For its hundreds of thousands of listeners, the podcast brings solace and laughter, community, and a call to action on behalf of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

    Credits: Hosted and produced by Geoffrey Redick. Edited by Grace Korzekwa Evans. Special thanks to Amanda Hill. Louis Graham is the executive editor of St. Jude Inspire.
