Help William Fight Leukemia: Urgent Transplant

Hello, my name is William Rivas, and I’m reaching out with a heavy heart and a hopeful spirit on behalf of my beloved son, William Josue Rivas, an incredible 11-year-old boy recently diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).

William is full of life, curiosity, and kindness. He loves [insert hobby if you’d like, e.g., reading, soccer, drawing, etc.], and he dreams of one day becoming [a doctor, engineer, etc.—optional]. But right now, William’s biggest fight is for his life.

After months of intense treatment, his medical team has told us that a bone marrow transplant is urgently needed to give him a real chance at recovery. This life-saving procedure is our hope — but it comes with enormous financial strain that we simply cannot handle alone.

We are humbly asking for your support.

We are trying to raise $140,000 to cover:

The cost of the bone marrow transplant

Hospitalization and treatment

Medications and post-transplant care

Travel and living expenses while he receives care away from home

Every donation — big or small — brings us closer to giving William the chance to live the full and healthy life he deserves. If you can’t give right now, we completely understand. Even just sharing this page with others can make a big difference.

From the bottom of my heart:

Thank you for your love, your prayers, and your support.

With gratitude,

William Rivas (William’s father)

We’re heartbroken to share that our dear friend Alex passed away far too soon. His light, his laughter, his incredible spirit — they touched so many, and his absence is deeply felt.

Hi everyone — Angela here, writing on behalf of Matthew (for now). On December 6th, completely out of the blue, Matthew suffered a severe stroke.
