“We started this event with a simple goal in mind and that was to raise money for St. Jude. I had visited their campus in Memphis and was so blown away at the facility, staff, and service that I made a pledge to contribute annually. It’s a bonus that I have had such amazing friends join us in the effort,” adds Rucker.
