Up Til Dawn

To the Bowdoin College Community:

   On behalf of the parents and patients of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, and the student organizers of Up 'til Dawn-Bowdoin College, I want to thank you for your tremendous efforts in making the first Up 'til Dawn a tremendous success. Not only did the event raise over $5,000 (money is still coming in!), it also touched the lives and hearts of many people within the community. This is truly an accomplishment to be proud of.
   Because of people like you, someday childhood cancer will no longer be the dreaded killer it is today, and St. Jude can continue to provide vital, life-saving treatment and research. Thousands of children and their families have been given the gift of hope and love, and clinical research at St. Jude can continue, including studies in chemotherapy, the biochemistry of normal and cancerous cells, and radiation treatment.We hope that you enjoyed the event as much as we enjoyed putting it on. We were very impressed by all of your efforts, and I know that with your enthusiasm and support, St. Jude can successfully continue its fundraising efforts at Bowdoin College.
   I sincerely thank you for all that you have done for St. Jude. You are truly an asset to the Bowdoin College community.

   With Warmest Regards,
   Cabul Mehta Executive
   Director of Up 'til Dawn-Bowdoin College
