Looking lovely in royal blue, Rihanna, joined the likes of Sean Combs, the hard working T.I., probable boyfriend Chris Brown, Leona Lewis and numerous other music heavyweights at Verizon & Blackberry's Grammy Party.
However, the Grammy Awards and music are not the only thing on Rihanna's mind. The singer has brought the story of 5-year-old Jasmina front and center. The girl is in need of a bone marrow donor.
Rihanna told People, "when I saw the video of Jasmina it broke my heart. It is so unfair that for a black patient it's so much harder to find a bone marrow match. Jasmina has acute leukemia and she needs a bone marrow transplant to live."
The singer helped out another child with leukemia last year. Rihanna adds: "Leukemia is the most common disease children in the U.S. die of and we need to change that. I urge everyone to sign up as a bone marrow donor with DKMS. If we have more donors, we can save more children like Jasmina."
Find out what you can do by checking out the DKMS website, the world's largest nonprofit marrow donor center.
Featured in the gallery: Rihanna, Adrienne Bailon, Keri Hilson, JC Chasez, Sean Combs, Warren G, Omarion, T.I., Cassie, Chris Brown, Paris Hilton, Nicky Hilton, Andrea Bowden, Leona Lewis.
