St. Jude founder Danny Thomas said, “Success in life has nothing to do with what you gain in life or accomplish for yourself. It’s what you do for others.” Guided by this philosophy, service to others is included in the preamble to the ALSAC Constitution signed in 1957 by Thomas. ALSAC is “dedicated to the parable of the “Good Samaritan,” to love and care for our neighbor, regardless of color or creed." That’s why service is reflected in one of our core values: We humbly serve our mission, one another, our supporters, and our local and global communities. ALSAC employees do this by regularly volunteering our unique gifts, time and resources to benefit others. We are thankful to have opportunities to do this, in part, through our Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives that help us extend the spirit of service to the communities in which we live and work.
