Donation
Thank you for donating to The Cristian Rivera Foundation. All donations go directly toward finding a cure for Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma. All donations are tax-deductible.
Cristian’s story magnifies just how important the work of the Cristian Rivera Foundation truly is. That work is to find a cure for DIPG which ultimately claimed his life at 6 years old. Your tax-deductible donation will one day find a cure for DIPG so no other family will have to suffer the grief that Cristian’s family endured.

Lisha Ayala
Has been living beyond D.I.P.G. for over 10 years after being diagnosed in 2013 and being told that she only had 9 months to live. She was treated on the Convection Enhanced Delivery trial which we sponsor with Dr. Mark Souweidane. We are proud to report that her tumor has not grown and remains stable. Lisha dreams of going to college to become a veterinarian.
Emiliano “Emi” Bermejo
Was first diagnosed with D.I.P.G. in May 2020. Within 4 months of his diagnosis, and with the guidance and help of CRF, Emi was treated on Dr. Souweidane’s CED Trial, showing signs of improvement soon thereafter. He has already beaten the odds by living with D.I.P.G. for over 3 years when he was told he had 8 months to live. Emi has stolen our hearts and is part of our CRF family.
Maria Kuenster
Was one of the few adults diagnosed with D.I.P.G. She has lived with D.I.P.G. for over 6 years, making her part of the 1% category that survive D.I.P.G. for more than 5 years. She’s now a college graduate and has advocated for D.I.P.G. awareness through Maria’s Miracle, where she raised nearly $45,000 to support others with D.I.P.G.
Jesselyn Silva
Was on her way to becoming an Olympic boxer before her diagnosis two years ago in July. However, she’s still fighting, and has the support of the entire boxing community behind her. With the help of CRF, she has met Mike Tyson, Gervonta Davis, stood in the ring with the undefeated Edgar Berlanga, and received her NYS Boxing License from the governor. We are currently
searching for clinical trials for her.
