DALLAS, July 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Guests dining at Texas de Brazil Churrascarias in the USA this August can stretch their dollars for good as the Brazilian steakhouse group offers its month-long campaign supporting St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in its life-saving mission: Finding cures. Saving children.^®

Texas de Brazil patrons will have the opportunity to contribute any dollar denomination directly to St. Jude at the bottom of guest checks. As added incentives, guests who donate five or more dollars can earn a matching-value gift certificate Tuesdays through Sundays, while on Monday only, the gift certificate earned will be twice the value of donations made. Both options have a maximum earning potential of $50 and are valid for future visits. Texas de Brazil will match donations up to $25,000 and no purchase is necessary.

"St. Jude has helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20 to 80 percent since the hospital opened nearly 50 years ago, and they won't stop until no child dies from cancer. Thanks to generous individual contributions, no family is presented a bill for treatment, travel, housing and food, because all a family should worry about is helping their child live," says Salim Asrawi, Chief Operating Officer of Texas de Brazil. "With the big-hearted support of our guests, we are proud to help St. Jude provide life-saving treatments and services for children fighting cancer and other life-threatening diseases," he adds.

St. Jude freely shares the discoveries it makes, and every child saved at St. Jude means doctors and scientists worldwide can use that knowledge to save thousands more children.
