Please join me at a benefit
that I'm organizing and sponsoring for my friend Ja! I would love to
have your support to make it a super success. One way you could
help, is to forward on this invitation to all your friends and
acquaintances who may want to come. It should be a really fun evening and
it will give my friend Ja a chance at a normal life.
Ja Pace is 20 years old and she has a blood condition that requires
monthly transfusions. She hopes to beat the disease by traveling to a
clinic in Rome that offers bone-marrow transplants from partial match
donors, but first she and her family must pay $70,000 up front towards the
$200,000 cost of the procedure.
To find more information about Ja and
beta thalassemia,
including a
newspaper article
written about her, Ja's
letter of proof of acceptance for a bone marrow
transplant,
and other news go to
