London, Feb 9 (ANI): Pop star Rihanna is helping a 5-year-old girl suffering from leukemia by finding a bone marrow donor for her.

Jasmina Amena has been struggling to find a donor, who can add relief to her life.

However, the `Umbrella' hitmaker, who was deeply touched when she came to know about the New York girl's plight, has taken the initiative to help the girl.

"When I saw her video, it broke my heart," the Sun quoted Rihanna, as saying.

"It is so unfair that for a black patient it is so much harder to find a bone marrow match," Rihanna added.

Jasmian, who has been in hospital since January 20, is touched by Rihanna's gesture.

"Rihanna loves children. I'm so excited," Jasmina said. (ANI)
