Anything to do with childhood cancer. I had a cousin that died of leukemia when he was seven (I was in high school) and it still haunts me to this day.

I would chose one that has the word “Children” in it’s name.
It wouldn’t matter if they were sick, cripple, starving, homeless, or illiterate, just as long as my name was associated with supporting “Children”.

Of course it would also have to give a good tax advantage and the widest public exposure.

Rare diseases. I have a rare disease and they don't get a lot of funding because they aren't as media friendly as cancer or MS etc. They're just as debilitating if not moreso.

Definitely St. Judes Childrens Hospital. The work they do there is INCREDIBLE.
