Jennifer Aniston Helps Fight Childhood Cancer With St. Jude Children's Research Hospital

A friend and supporter of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital for years, actress Jennifer Aniston joins the fight against childhood cancer once again in a national television spot filmed with six-year-old St. Jude patient, Ellie. Raising awareness for the hospital’s 5th annual Thanks and Giving campaign since its inception, Jennifer asks consumers to “Give thanks for the healthy kids in your life, and give to those who are not.”

Along with celebrities including Robin Williams, Jason Taylor, and Antonio Banderas, Jennifer pledges her support to St. Jude’s national fundraising and awareness campaign, Thanks and Giving. In addition to celebrities, fashion designers have also joined forces with St. Jude by creating specialty merchandise which donates 100 percent of profits, after all related expenses, to research and treatment at St. Jude.

Below, Jennifer poses in a ¾ length sleeve DKNY “Give Thanks” T-shirt ($18.00 sale, Reg $24.00), a part of a great selection of apparel and accessories featured in this year’s Thanks and Giving campaign. Additional products include items from Kate Spade, Juicy Couture, Lucky Brand, and Liz Claiborne. All products can be purchased online at www.stjude.org or by calling 1-800-4STJUDE.
