The goal of the first all-civilian space mission, Inspiration4, was to raise $200 million for St. Jude. Before Mr. Musk’s pledge, the mission had raised $160.2 million, according to CNBC. Jared Isaacman, a billionaire entrepreneur who purchased the flight from SpaceX, donated $100 million to St. Jude.
Inspiration4 said the donations will be used to support “finding cures for kids with cancer and other life-threatening diseases, regardless of their race, ethnicity, beliefs or a family’s ability to pay.”
