Meet Zaven — a bright and kind-hearted 8-year-old boy diagnosed with hereditary hemolytic anemia. Because of this serious condition, Zaven must undergo blood transfusions once or twice every month.

To this day, doctors have not been able to confirm an exact diagnosis. Due to the complexity of the disease and its likely genetic basis, a full genome sequencing is urgently needed. This in-depth test would allow doctors to identify the specific condition and create a tailored treatment plan.

The cost of this genetic test is 600,000 AMD — an amount his family cannot afford on their own.

Zaven just started 3rd grade. He loves riding his bike and dreams of taking guitar lessons.

Let’s help Zaven get the diagnosis and care he needs — so he can live a full childhood and chase his dreams.
