The Sun Run supports the world-class pediatric health care provided every day at SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital. Since opening our doors in 1956 as the nation’s first freestanding Catholic children’s hospital, SSM Health Cardinal Glennon has remained steadfast in our commitment to exceptional and accessible health care.

Over the years, we have proudly served more than 10 million children in need from the bi-state region of Missouri and Illinois and beyond. Our devotion has never been stronger, and the need has never been greater. At Cardinal Glennon, we ensure our doors are always open for a child in need as we are more than just a hospital, we are a devoted partner in the health and well-being of families. Many of our programs and services thrive through the generosity of friends, partners, and donors as we live our mission every day: Through our exceptional health care services, we reveal the healing presence of God.
