What is the Glennon Card?
The Glennon Card is a unique, 10-day discount shopping program organized by the SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Foundation and the Glennon Guild, a 300 member women’s organization serving the children cared for by SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital.
Here's How the Glennon Card Works:
An individual purchases a Glennon Card which entitles the cardholder to a 20% discount on regularly priced merchandise at hundreds of participating stores, salons and restaurants for the 10-day shopping period of October 15-24. 100% of card sales benefit the kids cared for by SSM Health Cardinal Glennon.
