Meet Baby Giovanni
At 6 weeks old, he began getting life threatening infections and after months of hospitalization was diagnosed with NEMO. He’s 1 of 12 in the United States with NEMO and 150 worldwide. His parents were told he would die before his 1st birthday without a marrow transplant.
With the help of DKMS, his family launched a massive bone marrow movement covering 10 states adding over 13,000 people to the registry, identifying nearly 300 potential matches, and matching 9 donors with patients in need.
With your support the life saving will continue.

“My experience with the DKMS organization was memorable. I had the privilege as a donor to prolong another’s life. DKMS allowed me to feel comfortable from the moment I was informed I was a marrow match to the actual donation. DKMS was extremely professional while organizing the transplant.
More than 1.7 million others are fighting for the cause.
