Thanks to community support and fundraisers like Nicky’s Week at RA Sushi Bar Restaurant, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital
is able to help children live -- without billing their families. During
RA Sushi’s largest annual fundraiser, 100 percent of Nicky’s Week menu
profits go to St. Jude. The math adds up: since inception and counting
all 26 locations nationwide, more than $1.5 million has gone toward the
hospital’s lifesaving mission. This year, the Midtown restaurant will
offer the Nicky’s Week menu Monday, May 25 through Sunday, May 31. Order
favorites such as edamame, Tootsy maki, shrimp nigiri, pork gyoza,
sesame garlic chicken, garlic citrus yellowtail, plus a variety of
select beverages. Nicholas “Nicky” Mailliard, St. Jude patient and
nephew of one of RA Sushi’s founders, lost a long battle with brain
cancer in 2005 at age 13. His courage and spirit won the hearts of RA
Sushi associates and led to the Nicky’s Week legacy, a big “RAh” for
aiding children battling cancer and other life-threatening diseases at
St. Jude.
