Strack & Van Til is partnering with MillerCoors and Indiana Beverage to raise funds in support of the St Jude Children’s Research Hospital. The campaign encourages shoppers to participate by donating $1 at the register for a “Pin Up” at any of the Strack & Van Til, Ultra Foods and Town & Country Market stores from April 13th – 30th.
Every dollar makes a difference in the lives of the children and their families as they go through treatments together. At St. Jude, no family ever receives a bill for treatment, travel, housing or food because of the gracious donors that are making a difference in the lives of others. St. Jude is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. St. Jude shares its research and consults with hospitals around the world. Supporting St. Jude, gives hope to families with sick children right here in Indiana.
“St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is an organization that does amazing things to improve the lives of so many people here in Indiana and across the country. The fact that they don’t turn away a child for financial reasons tells a pretty clear story as to what they’re all about, which is saving the lives of our children. We’re humbled by what they do for these kids and their families and we look forward to aiding in that mission.
It’s an important campaign for us and we’re so grateful for the partnership and continued support of MillerCoors and Indiana Beverage. They are such an important part of bringing the campaign to life and we’re looking forward to 2016 being the best year to date.” – Chris Bengtson, VP at Strack and Van Til
“Since 1992 Team Indiana Beverage and MillerCoors distributors throughout the country with the help of their generous retail partners, such as Strack and Van Til have raised millions of dollars for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. St Jude is the nation’s top pediatric cancer research center where families never pay for treatment not covered by insurance and families without insurance are never asked to pay. We, at Indiana Beverage, are grateful to Strack and VanTil for their commitment to make a difference in the life of a child and their family. Because of the remarkable research done by St Jude which they share worldwide and the contributions by MillerCoors, local distributors and their retail partners, the survival rate for the most common form of childhood cancer, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, has risen from 4 percent in 1962 to 94 percent today. We are truly blessed to participate in this very worthwhile endeavor. “- Judy Leetz Vice President Indiana Beverage
