Jelani is a 23-year-old single father and the youngest of six siblings. Once a dedicated football and track athlete, he’s always been known for his determination and love for his 5-year-old son. Recently, Jelani’s life changed dramatically when an undiagnosed kidney disease was discovered at stage 4. The late diagnosis meant he had to start dialysis immediately, and the strain on his body soon affected his heart, leading to the need for both a heart and kidney transplant.

 After a successful surgery, Jelani now faces a long road to recovery. He is currently unable to work and must remain close to the hospital for a month of intensive monitoring. The hospital provides off-campus housing, but the cost is significant, and his caretaker is required to stay with him. On top of housing, there are ongoing expenses for food, gas, and parking, all of which add up quickly during this critical time.

 Jelani’s 5-year-old son is being cared for by his grandfather, aunts, uncles, mother, and grandmother, who are all working together to keep his life as stable as possible. The funds raised will help cover housing, daily living expenses, and ensure Jelani and his son have the support they need as he works toward a full recovery. Your support will make a real difference for this young family as they navigate the challenges ahead.
