PHOTO FAB: Solange Knowles Shares Pics From Her FAB Life, Tries To Cure Cancer

 

Offering a peek into her fab life, Solange Knowles today posted a few fab pics (including one of big sister Beyonce) from her personal collection on her blog.  Plus, she's taken on the huge task of finding ways to cure blood cancer.  Check them out inside....

Solange Knowles gave a peek into her life with a few personal pics of herself and her friends/family on her blog.  She posted the one above simply saying "My Big Sis".

And her and brother-in-law who she calls simply her big bro Jay-Z.

She also partied with her fave group--Florence + The Machine.

 

And in case you missed it:

She also included pics from her November 2011 photoshot for LUCKY Magazine where she was chosen as the month's "Lucky Girl."

 

In other Solange news.....

 

She recently recorded a new PSA featuring asking people everywhere to help find a cure for blood cancer by registering to be a Bone Marrow Donor with DKMS. Check it out above and get swabbed!

As a mother, Solange understands how heartbreaking it must be to watch your child suffer and not be able to help. Her dedication to registering new donors is personal, and this past summer she took charge and hosted a donor drive at her son Juelz’s school. This PSA raises a call to action and educates the public on how simple being a patient’s potential cure is.

 

“Since attending the DKMS gala couple of years ago, I have wanted to lend my support in any way I could. People are dying and we can save them. Patients like Kara could be cured with a bone marrow transplant,” said Solange Knowles. “A lot of people don't understand that it's literally a cotton swab that determines if you’re a match. This can actually save someone's life!”

 

Every day thousands of patients search the national registry in the hope of finding a bone marrow donor match. Less than 30% of patients find a match in their own family; the other 70% must search for an unrelated donor. Sadly, 6 out of 10 patients who can benefit from a transplant never receive one.
