Atlanta, GA-- If anyone knows what it means to survive, it is James Fortune.  Having lived through a situation of despair, Fortune has overcome the impossible and is a true testimony of faith and perseverance. This is the message he wants to share with the rest of the world. 

Having been a supporter since 2010, the award-winning gospel star has visited St. Jude Children’s Hospital several times and performed a benefit concert, continuing to give support and love to the children there who suffer from all types and stages of cancer and other life threatening diseases.  He is intimately invested in the work of the hospital and is rallying for others to do the same.  

His recent visit was a much welcomed surprise – especially for a special 4-year old boy, diagnosed with pineoblastoma.  Visits like these are what Fortune encourages his family and celebrity friends to do to continue to raise awareness and the funds to keep St. Jude’s operating on a regular basis.  With the generosity of Fortune, and other countless donors, St. Jude’s is able to treat the world’s sickest children at no cost or additional stress to their families.
