Lara Casalotti is a 24-year-old Chinese-Thai-Italian student who has two cousins attending St. Vincent’s Catholic Primary School. She is passionate about human rights and working on refugee issues. Sadly, she was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia in December 2015, and will need a stem cell donor to save her life.

Lara’s mixed heritage makes it extremely hard to find a stem cell donor as matching types are an inherited trait. Sadly her only brother is not a match.
