Pizza Customers Contribute Over Million to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital

by Topwitty

In a significant philanthropic effort, Domino’s Pizza announced that its customers collectively contributed over million to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in 2024. This generous outpouring of support is aimed at advancing research and treatments for childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. The contributions were primarily generated through the St. Jude Thanks and Giving campaign, which ran for 11 weeks and concluded on January 5, 2025. During this campaign alone, Domino’s raised more than .9 million. Furthermore, prior to the campaign’s initiation, customers were encouraged to round up their order totals as a form of micro-donation, resulting in over .7 million raised through this initiative.

In addition to customer contributions, team members from both Domino’s franchise and corporate sides raised over 7,000 during the annual St. Jude Walk/Run event, further showcasing the company’s commitment to philanthropy. This collaborative fundraising effort underscores a shared mission to support children in need of critical medical care.

Russell Weiner, CEO of Domino’s, expressed gratitude for the outpouring of generosity from customers and team members alike. “The St. Jude Thanks and Giving campaign is a beloved tradition at Domino’s,” he stated. “Each year, we are reminded of the profound difference that Domino’s team members, franchisees, and customers can make in the lives of children in need of care around the world. I am continuously in awe of St. Jude’s devotion to patients and their families – Domino’s is honored to contribute to creating brighter futures for them.”

The recent million raised through the campaign brings Domino’s cumulative contributions to St. Jude to over 3 million since the partnership’s inception. This commitment highlights the ongoing relationship between the pizza chain and the research hospital, which has been active for 21 years. In May 2024, Domino’s pledged to escalate its efforts, setting a goal to raise 0 million for St. Jude by 2034. This ambitious target is designed to bolster the hospital’s mission of ensuring that families do not receive a bill for their children’s treatment, travel, housing, or food, allowing them to focus solely on providing care and support to their children.

Overall, the partnership exemplifies how corporate social responsibility and community engagement can result in substantial benefits for society, specifically in the realm of pediatric healthcare. The ongoing support from Domino’s customers is not merely a financial contribution; it is a commitment to fostering hope and improving the quality of life for children battling serious health challenges.
