Beacon of Light Gala

Join us on Saturday, May 9, 2026, for the inaugural St. Jude Beacon of Light gala hosted at the iconic Raffles Hotel in Boston, Massachusetts. This event will bring together Boston’s most distinguished philanthropists for an intimate experience featuring a gourmet dinner paired with fine wines and craft cocktails, an inspiring story from a St. Jude patient family, live entertainment, a live auction, and meaningful moments that illuminate the power of giving.

All proceeds from this event benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, where families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food — so they can focus on helping their child live.
