Help Phenyo Find A Match!

Share this drive with your friends and family

Diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL), six-year-old Phenyo is in desperate need of a matching stem cell donor. Without it, his chance at long-term survival continues to fade away. Register now and help give children like Phenyo a second chance at life.

Described as a bright spark who loves baking, the mother, Emily shared that her worries started in October 2024 when the bubbly boy started to get constantly tired, short of breath, and couldn’t eat. His family took him to Chris Hani Academic Hospital, and that is where they received his diagnosis.

Since that day, Phenyo’s bright reality has turned into hospital beds.

So far, no match has been found and time is not on his side. His mom, Emily, added if there’s one thing she wants more than anything, is to see Phenyo grow.

“With everything we’ve been through, I still believe there are kind people out there,” she says. “People who will see my child not just as another story, but as a little boy who deserves a chance. Please, if you’re reading this; register. Even if it’s not for Phenyo, it could be for another child waiting,” said Emily.

Remember, all costs related to the donation process are taken care of by DKMS Africa.
