St Judes

St Judes Hospital The actual 501(c)(3) charity is called "St. Jude Children's Research Hospital", which is a very worthwhile cause.

There is a listing on the DOT website for St Jude Clothing Recycling, located at 15101 Baltimore Ave, Suite 108, Laurel, MD, DOT #2156563, Out of Service date 3 Apr 2013, with 1 truck and 1 driver. Managed by Javier (or Zavier) Benitez. Listed on the fmcsa.dot.gov website as "new entrant revoked - failure of safety audit".

Court records:

• 11/21/2015, Javier Benitez, dob 6/1970, 810 Arbor Pl, Bowie, suspended registration, @ Laurel, Bowie Rd

There is no listing as a MD entity of any "St Jude ..." that would appear to be related to these bins. The tradename for "St Jude Children's Research Hospital" was registered in MD in 2004, owned by American Lebanese Syrian Associated Charities, Inc. It was renewed in 2008 and 2014 by same owner.

American Lebanese Syrian Associated Charities, Inc. was first registered in 1978 in MD, changed resident agent several times, most recently in Feb 2017 to The Corporation Trust, Inc, Lutherville.

It is obvious that these bins are not being monitored and cleaned up sufficiently. The e-mail on the bin to contact is st.judeclothingrecycling@yahoo.com. I sent an e-mail on June 26 and am waiting for a response.
