                               If  you are a Facebook user, you can help St. Jude to take care of some children with cancer and other diseases. The hospital welcomes them no matter what the family's income may be.All it takes is to play a game where you run a virtual candy shop and give free candy to friends who also play the game. Of course, you are encouraged to use real money to buy virtual candy and help St. Jude, but there's no obligation. The app is called Willy's Sweet Shop , 
and it is a sweet way to make a difference!


P.S. There is a similar facebook  app that also raises funds for St. Jude, called O Christmas Tree
