Their Story

Her story

This is my daughter, Kaia Julka. She’s 8 years old—smart, strong, and full of life. She loves Jiu Jitsu, Taekwondo, singing Taylor Swift, and laughing harder than anyone I know.

Kaia was recently diagnosed with aplastic anemia, a rare and serious bone marrow disease. Right now, her best hope is a bone marrow transplant.

You can help—by joining the registry. It’s a simple cheek swab that could save a life. We especially need those of Indian, Korean or mixed heritage.


We are based in Columbus, Ohio.
