Saddle Up for St. Jude

What is Saddle Up for St. Jude?

Saddle Up for St. Jude is a fun horseback trail-riding event that raises money for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Trail riders from all over the country have joined together to hold Saddle Up events to help St. Jude in its fight against childhood cancer and other catastrophic diseases. Every person who participates in a Saddle Up event helps in the life-saving research and treatment at St. Jude.
