Rebecca Rizzo, wife of SJSS Founder and Technical Director Bill Rizzo, has been identified through the Delete Blood Cancer DKMS Organization as a match for a patient in need and has undergone the initial steps to fulfill her commitment to save a life.Rebecca agreed to have the inner lining of her mouth swabbed prior to the Union v. Chivas USA match back in 2011 on the pavilion of PPL Park. As a result of doing so, the organization was able to identify a patient that shared
similar DNA to Rebecca. Rebecca has undergone the initial bloodwork and is waiting to hear back from the patient's team of physicians and the Delete Blood Cancer DKMS Organization on the next steps in the process. Please help us in recognizing Rebecca for being a life saver to someone in need and an inspiraiton to us all.
