KEEP HOPE ALIVE
This is my friend Askia. Like many 4-year-olds, he
spends his days discovering new wonders.
Unfortunately, he also spends every day waiting for a
very special person who can save his life.
You see, like thousands of other African American
kids, Askia has a blood disease that will kill him unless
he finds a marrow donor. His donor is someone out
there whose body tissues are very similar to his.
