90 Day Fiancé's Jenny Slatten's ALS Fight: GoFundMe Reaches $100K Milestone
A fundraiser made to support 90 Day Fiancé alum Jenny Slatten amid her battle with ALS has raised more than $100,000.
The GoFundMe page, created by Jenny’s friend Penny Minincleri, has received $110,116 out of $171,700 since its launch on May 20. Nearly 3,000 people have donated as of publication.
“Jenny (Janet Colleen Slatten) was recently diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS),” the page’s description reads. “Although she is still in the early stages, she has already begun experiencing symptoms such as changes in her voice, slurred speech, and difficulty swallowing.”
ALS is a “nervous system disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord,” according to the Mayo Clinic. The illness “leads to muscle weakness and other symptoms that get worse over time,” eventually affecting the muscles needed to move, speak, eat and breathe.
“As many of you know, ALS is a progressive disease that will require increasing medical care and support over time,” the page continued. “The primary purpose of this fundraiser is to help cover Jenny’s growing medical expenses, including mobility equipment such as a walker and wheelchair, in-home nursing or caregiver support and future hospital and treatment costs. Medication alone for 1 year will exceed $200,000.”
The fundraiser also aims to help Jenny’s daughters, Christina and Dominique, spend extended time in India with their mom throughout her health battle. (Jenny, 68, moved to India in 2019 to be with husband Sumit Singh, whom she married in 2021, as seen on 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way.)
“If you know Jenny and Sumit, whether through the show, social media, or personally, you know how loving, genuine and kindhearted they are,” the page added. “Any donation, no matter the amount, will go directly toward helping them navigate the financial challenges ahead and ensuring Jenny has the care and support she needs.”
An update in early July revealed that Jenny had experienced trouble swallowing and struggled with migraines beginning in December 2025. She underwent testing to determine whether she had a gene that would respond to medication designed to slow down the disease’s progression.
“Since that diagnosis and in the last 8 months, Jenny's voice has deteriorated and speaks very slowly and she is experiencing weakness and loss of mobility while walking,” the page continued. “Once an avid walker, Jenny can only take a few steps at a time now but is still determined to keep walking.”
A later update revealed that Jenny and Sumit, 38, would move to the U.S. for medical care if Sumit can obtain an emergency visa and if Jenny is cleared to fly.
In an Instagram video on Sunday, August 30, Sumit shared more news regarding his wife’s condition.
“Unfortunately, the ALS is progressing and now it’s starting showing more in her talking, like, it’s hard for her to talk now,” he said. “Earlier, she was doing good. It’s progressing, but we were thinking that we’d come to America … if we can get proper treatment. I always keep my hopes high, and I feel that America might have something better for Jenny and she can get at least a better support system.”
