What are the two kinds of people mentioned in the quote of Mario’s father?
Interviewer: I know this is a quote your father used to say. And I hope I got it right. There are people that are givers.
Mario: There are two kinds of people in the world, the givers and the takers.
Interviewer: The givers and the takers?
Mario: The takers sometimes sleep better, but the givers always sleep better.
Interviewer: Right. So this again, this year, and again, you know what, I, St. Jude Hospital is such a special place that, you know, I just want people to always give throughout the year, because, because you know, kids just keep going there from all over the country, right?
Mario: Well I think, yes, the children come from every community in the country. And what I think is great about this time of year, we are all out there, shopping and buying presents for Christmas, and Heineken, all those wonderful holidays, and we are in a very happy mood, but we have to remember that, there are families right now who are fighting for their child’s life. And I think a great way to remember them and to honour that is to, and also to give thanks to the healthy kids in your life, that’s a whole sort of motto of the campaign, the Thanks & Giving Campaign. We are so lucky to have healthy families, we are so lucky. Our parents, our children, our spouses, ourselves. So give thanks to the healthy kids in your life, and give to those who are not. And it’s so simple. Because we have always great retail partners. We have CVS, and Dick’s Sporting Goods, and Target and Kmart, Kay Jewelers and Williams-Sonoma, Pottery Barn, all these great companies.
Interviewer: So you get all these to cooperate as friends.
Mario: Yes.
Interviewer: And basically if I go shopping to any of the stores.
Mario: Ann Taylors, they are gonna ask you to leave a dollar for the children of St. Jude, that’s it. So you spent 80 dollars, 100 dollars whatever you spent, maybe 8 dollars. In CVS pharmacy the average transaction is 7 dollars, and yet last year 7 million people put down a dollar at CVS pharmacy. This not amazing? And the average transaction was only 7 dollars.
Interviewer: And Mario, and that goes regularly to call for responses that you just write a check and send that right to the hospital.
Mario: What happens is they actually have a SKEQ key right on the cash register, so they don’t have to pay tax audit or anything. The money comes right in, the money goes directly to St. Jude. So what I love about St. Jude and why I’m proud, to be able to ask money for it, I know where the money is going. It’s not going to three other companies, or three other organizations. It’s going right from CVS, Williams-Sonoma, or whoever, and going right to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
