The Galena family partnered with Gift of Life Bone Marrow Foundation and DKMS Americas to set up many drives in the hopes of finding Ayelet a perfect bone marrow donor match.

Ayelet's family setup a Tumblr blog when they transported her from Sloan Kettering Hospital to Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, where they would do the transplant, to keep their family and friends updated on her progress.
