Dear Friends, Family, and Kind-Hearted Strangers,
We are reaching out with heavy hearts and hopeful spirits to ask for your help in saving the life of a brave and beautiful child in urgent need of a bone marrow transplant.
At just 11 years old, Jiovanni Osbourne has been battling a life-threatening illness, Beta Thalassemia Major, for the past 6 years. He has been fighting this with more strength and courage than most adults can ever muster. After lots of testing and treatments, doctors have confirmed that a bone marrow transplant is the cure for him to live a normal and healthy life.
The procedure is complex, and the associated costs are staggering. Between the transplant itself, pre- and post-operative care, hospitalization, medications, and travel expenses, the total amount needed is US $600,000. This figure is overwhelming for any family to bear alone—but with your help, it becomes possible.
We know times are tough for many, but every donation, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to hope, healing, and a future for this child. Sharing this appeal with your networks could also make all the difference.
This is more than just a fundraiser—this is a fight for a child’s life. And we believe, with your support, we can win.
Please donate, share, and keep Jiovanni in your thoughts and prayers. Together, we can give this brave child the second chance he so deeply deserves.
With heartfelt gratitude,
[Janelle Osbourne / The Mother of Jiovanni Osbourne]
