Domino's Pizza Champions Childhood Cancer Research Through Continuous Support of St. Jude

Domino's Pizza Inc. reinforces its commitment to philanthropy by supporting St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in its ongoing campaign against childhood cancer. This year marks the 22nd consecutive participation in the St. Jude Thanks and Giving® campaign, a significant milestone for the company that began its partnership in 2004. From now until January 4, 2026, customers have the opportunity to contribute to this noble cause by purchasing the St. Jude Giving Combo, priced at $26.99. This combo includes two large two-topping pizzas, an eight-piece order of Stuffed Cheesy Bread, a two-liter soda, and a $1 donation to St. Jude. This initiative not only offers a delicious meal but also fosters a spirit of community and support for families battling childhood cancer.

Joe Jordan, Domino's chief operating officer and president – U.S., articulates the company’s pride in maintaining this long-standing tradition of giving. He emphasizes the importance of ensuring that every child has the opportunity to live their best life, underscoring the positive impact of their contributions in the fight against childhood cancer. Since the inception of their partnership with St. Jude, Domino's has raised over $143 million and has set an ambitious goal of raising a total of $300 million by 2034, marking 30 years of fundraising efforts. This pledge reflects the company's dedication to making a significant difference in the lives of children and their families facing the challenges of cancer treatment.

The impact of donations to St. Jude is monumental, as the hospital ensures that families never face bills for treatment, travel, housing, or food, allowing them to focus entirely on their child's health. Since St. Jude's founding in 1962, the survival rate for childhood cancer has surged from 20% to over 80%, a testament to the vital role that charitable contributions play in advancing medical research and treatment options. Domino’s efforts not only provide customers with a chance to enjoy their favorite pizza but also empower them to contribute meaningfully to a cause that affects countless families.

In addition to the Giving Combo, customers can make contributions through various means, including phone orders, in-store purchases, or online round-ups, making it easier for everyone to participate in this charitable initiative. Domino's continues to blend its business model with social responsibility, demonstrating that the act of enjoying a meal can extend beyond personal satisfaction to making a profound impact on society. Through these initiatives, the company reinforces its role not just as a pizza provider, but as a vital supporter of childhood cancer research and a beacon of hope for affected families.
