About

Jerseys for St. Jude is a fundraising drive to benefit the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. This collaborative effort features EBay auctions of autographed tournament jerseys for the biggest names in professional fishing. Several jerseys will be auctioned each week from February through the end of March. On EBay, search under “Jerseys for St. Jude” and/or the name of the angler. 100% of the proceeds will benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

The auction is part of the 14th Annual Dick Hiley / St. Jude bass fishing tournament on the Mississippi River in Wabasha, Minnesota. To date, the tournament has raised over $1 Million for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

For those wishing to contribute to St. Jude and become part of this wonderful effort, donations can be made directly by clicking on the link provided under the "Important Links!" list to the right. For every $10 donation, an entry will be placed in a drawing for many great prizes!
