Keeping Them Safe
So They Can Dream Big
Bodyguards For Kids
Uniting the security industry for one great cause

For years, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital has treated children from all 50 states as well as from around the world. About 8,600 patients are seen at St. Jude annually, most of whom are treated on a continuing outpatient basis and are part of ongoing research programs. We have always been quite connected and moved by all those who spend their time, energy, and finances to affect and better the lives of little children. As we began our search for the charity we most wanted to work with, it became a simple decision to align ourselves with St. Jude's Children's Hospital. The mission and entire purpose behind them brought us to create this event.
​
Nannyguard's new initiative, Bodyguards for Kids, aims to create an impactful virtual networking and educational fundraising event that will be held annually. We are proud to announce that 100% of the donations and event fees raised will directly benefit the children at St. Jude. In a time when our industry peers are scattered in various directions, we aspire to make this event a unifying experience for a noble cause: providing medical assistance and support to these young children.
​
Our goal for this fundraiser is twofold: to gather as many donations as possible for children in need, while also offering attendees valuable learning opportunities. We have developed numerous options for individuals and companies to contribute and actively participate in this worthy cause.​
