We are pleased to announce that the Cancer Frontier Fund at The Foundation for Barnes-Jewish Hospital recently funded nine new projects through the Siteman Investment Program (SIP), a research grant program at Alvin J. Siteman Cancer Center at Barnes-Jewish Hospital and Washington University School of Medicine.

With the help of donor support, Barnes-Jewish Hospital’s Heart and Vascular Center continuously ranks among the best in the nation, a beacon of hope for patients like Nathan Olsen. “Barnes-Jewish heart surgeons are among the few who can perform bypass surgery using veins from the chest rather than the legs. It was a blessing I was sent to St. Louis,” Nathan says. 

Agnes Judge generously donated $1,000 to The Foundation for Barnes-Jewish Hospital to support patient care in the Joanne Knight Breast Health Center at Siteman. Siteman was the 48^th of 50 planned visits Agnes has made to leading cancer centers in each of the country’s 50 states. She has donated $1,000 to every center she has visited.
