Against Me! Benefit Concerts for Diane Olalde
Location: Chicago, Illinois
Date: Tuesday, January 15, 2008
The Harvest of Hope Foundation, which Against Me! is proud to support, is currently seeking donations towards the cost of a life-saving bone marrow transplant for 6-year old Diana Olalde of Tifton, Georgia. Diaa was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in May 2006 and was treated with chemotherapy, but then suffered a relapse in August this year. Her doctors are now saying that she must have a bone marrow transplant within a month, but the approximate cost of such a transplant can cost $500,000 or more.
For more information on Diana and her condition please visit www.myspace.com/olalde2007 or contact Phil Kellerman at kellerhope@cox.net. |
