Congratulations Monmouth College

Monmouth College is proud to be a part of Up ‘til Dawn. Since Up ‘til Dawn began at Monmouth College, more than $12,500 have been raised for St. Jude.

Up ‘til Dawn is a student-run program found at many colleges throughout the United States. The students at the college wrote letters to family and friends encouraging them to donate money to help save the lives of children.

Last year, Monmouth College’s sponsors were A Touch of Time, Italian Village and Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream.

This year the goal is to raise even more money and encourage both the college and local community to come together as one. For information on how you can help save the life of a child, contact Amy Jones at 309/868-0359 or Sara Ingersoll at singerso@monm.edu.

St. Jude Research Hospital is internationally recognized for its pioneering work in finding cures and saving children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases.

Founded by the late entertainer Danny Thomas and based in Memphis, Tenn., St. Jude freely shares its discoveries with scientific and medical communities around the world. No family ever pays for treatments not covered by insurance, and families without insurance are never asked to pay. St. Jude is financially supported by ALSAC, its fundraising organization. For more information, please call 1-800/822-6344 or visit www.stjude.org.
