STILLWATER, Okla. – OnCue achieved a hair-raising $302,500 fundraising goal during the 25th annual St. Jude Halloween Promotion to benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, which is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases.

During the month of October, participating restaurants, convenience stores, grocery stores and retail locations asked customers to donate at the register to support the hospital’s lifesaving mission of finding cures and saving children. In exchange for contributing $1 or more, patrons received a ghoulish Halloween-themed pinup donning a frightfully charming St. Jude patient to personalize and display in the store.

“I’m grateful to be a part of a team that has chosen to help make a difference in the lives of so many families.  And when you hear these parents say ‘Thank you for saving my child’, or ‘Thanks for another Christmas or birthday,’ you know the efforts have paid huge dividends,” said Greg Webb with OnCue.

This is the 10th year OnCue has participated in the annual St. Jude Halloween promotion, raising more than $1.33 million for St. Jude. Since 1992, the national campaign has generated $90 million to support St. Jude.

“It’s an honor to team up with fellow employees and our incredible customers to make a difference in the lives and futures of families right here in Oklahoma, as well as around the world,” said Adriene Robins with OnCue.

Treatments invented at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20% to more than 80% since the hospital opened more than 50 years ago. To learn more about the St. Jude Halloween Promotion, visit stjude.org/halloween.
