As heart felt this story might be, this does not but cause unnecessary
flood on the net and someone mailbox.  Unless there is an official
confirmation with the Organization itself, this is nothing but a hoax to
users online to spam an organization's mailbox.  There have been many, and
I mean MANY, requests with the same story about a kid with a fatal
condition, etc... in the attempt to solicit users to send email.  This
only the organization to shut down their address.

If you want to help, call and get verification.
