Smouse Bros in the Community
why we support St Jude
At Smouse Bros, our roots run deep in the Ozarks. We’re proud to call this community home and believe in giving back to the people and places that have supported us for generations.
Every year, we proudly partner with Mid-West Family’s St. Jude Radiothon to raise funds for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. It’s one of our favorite traditions, and it reminds us how powerful this community can be when we come together for a cause that truly matters.
Beyond our support for St. Jude, our team regularly participates in local charity events, school fundraisers, and community sponsorships that make a difference right here at home. Whether it’s donating materials, lending a hand, or showing up to cheer on a local team, we’re committed to investing our time and resources in the people who make this region special.
Because at Smouse Bros, being local means more than just doing business here, it means helping build a stronger, kinder, and more connected community for everyone.

About St. Jude
The St. Jude Story
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital® is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. Our purpose is clear: Finding cures. Saving children.®
Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food — so they can focus on helping their child live. Because of generous donor support, we can provide children cutting-edge treatments not covered by insurance.
St. Jude cares for some of the world’s sickest children regardless of their race, ethnicity, beliefs or ability to pay. Our patients receive the customized care they need to treat childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases, no matter what barriers they may face.
When St. Jude opened in 1962, childhood cancer was largely considered incurable. Since then, St. Jude has helped push the overall survival rate in the U.S. from 20% to more than 80%. In many countries, however, only 1 out of 5 children who develop cancer will survive. We won’t stop until no child dies from cancer, no matter where they live.
Every Dollar Saves a Child
Your donation to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital® helps ensure families never receive a bill for treatment, travel, housing, or food — so they can focus entirely on their child’s recovery.
