Donate to Kids (Simon DeCarvalho)
My little buddy Simon DeCarvalho, whom I have known since his birth in 2002, is suffering from a life threatening extremely rare genetic disorder that has had the medical community baffled for years. At this point the dedicated researchers have determined the best course of action to save his life: a bone marrow transplant.
There are a few things you can do to help save Simon's life:
If you would like to register with Be The Match online, click here. If you would like to register in person, click here to search for a drive in your area.
If you would like to donate any amount to help pay for his medical, click here (my Mozilla fundraising page) or here (Child's Organ Transplant). I do not handle the money, all money goes straight to COTA, and is tax deductible.
If you don't want to see if you have the same blood type, and can't afford to make a small donation, at the very least you could submit this page or any of the above donation pages multiple times to Facebook, Twitter, StumbleUpon, Digg, Google +, other social networking sites, or e-mail the links to others to spread the word to either donate or to see if you're a match.
Simon's parents already have lost their house due to the cost of medical care, so any help is greatly appreciated.
