Story

GREAT NEWS! I found my first three potential bone marrow donors. 2 Italians and one Turkish. I am really please that my raising awareness campaign over the last few months has helped me to find three kind and amazing people who will help to change the lives of people affected by Leukaemia. Please help me to reach my target  as I am very close to meet it! THANK YOU!

 

I MADE IT ... YES ... I COMPLETED MY CHALLENGE. A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL Y DONORS.

 

PLEASE CONTINUE TO DONATE because my work with the Leukaemia Society has not stopped .. We need donors like you but we are still looking for bone marrow donors to help us to save more lives.

 

Many Thanks ENZO!

 

THANk YOU SO MUCH TO ALL MY SUPPORTERS FOR HELPING ME REACH THE 50 % Target. PLEASE pass my link to other and help the LEUKAEMIA SOCIETY UK.

You may know that l lost my auntie to Leukaemia at the young age of 28, one year after giving birth to her only daughter.Later on in life I also lost my father to another form of cancer. In 2009, I became a volunteer for the Leukaemia Society and met  the most incredibly committed people, both staff and other volunteers.

 

One of my biggest projects at the moment is to translate documentation into Italian so that I  can contact Italian communities in London to find bone marrow donors. Italian, like Spanish, are under represented in the UK Bone Marrow register. The Leukaemia Society and myself wish to appeal to those communities so that they can contribute to change and save the lives of more people affected by Leukaemia. 

 

Anyway, now, I will help them in a very different way. They have asked me to take part on a trek in Peru. I accepted with great enthusiasm, but now I have to get fit and raise £3,500!.  It’s a big amount but hopefully thanks to the generosity of some friends and family I am very hopefully in achieving this target.

 

To help reach my target I will also be involved in fundraising activities, one of which is to teach Italian in return for a donation  - so if you need lessons just let me know!

I would like to thank you all in advance for any help you can give to meet this target, not just to help me live this challenging experience, but to change the lives of people suffering from Leukemia

 

MANY THANKS

Enzo
