Hi, my name is Karin and I am fundraising for this life-saving treatment for my sister, Yara.

Yara was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) in 2018 at the age of 16. She bravely fought until she went into remission in December of 2020.
Since then, she has been advocating for cancer patients and raising money for the Children's Cancer Center of Lebanon, where she was initially treated.

But now, the cancer is back and we need your help to save Yara's life.

At the age of 21, she will need to be treated at the American University of Beirut Medical Center (AUBMC) and payment must be made upfront in order for her to start the treatment.
Her treatment plan requires critical medications to fight leukemia. The first is Blinatumomab along with the Ponatinib pills to compliment. This will cost $100,000 alone. Following this phase, Yara will need to undergo a bone marrow transplant, after finding a match, which will cost approximately $80,000. These expenses are in addition to her ongoing hospital stay during the length of her treatment.

Time is critical and Yara needs to start her therapy as soon as possible.
Your donation, no matter the amount, will make a significant impact on Yara's life.

Please share this fundraiser with your family, friends, colleagues, and community.
