Dear Family and Friends, 

Our names are Pasha, McKenzie, and Hayden and we are three high school students trying to make a real difference. Together, we are leading Cure Crew, a team committed to raising awareness and funding for life-saving research through The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Student Visionaries of the Year program. Each of us has had our older siblings involved with this incredible organization over the past 4 years. With your generous donations, they were able to fundraise over $352,000 and now it’s our turn to add to that total.

For us, this fight is personal. We have each been deeply impacted by cancer, witnessing our loved ones bravely fight their battles—some overcoming the disease, while others were taken too soon. We’ve seen firsthand how devastating this disease is, and we refuse to just stand by. That’s why we’ve set a huge goal: raising $90,000 in just seven weeks (Feb 24 - April 10) to fund cutting-edge new treatments and drive real progress in the fight against blood cancer.

We’re especially passionate about research because that’s what’s changing the game. Just a few decades ago, a diagnosis like this was often devastating. Today, thanks to breakthroughs in medicine, survival rates are improving, but there’s still so much work to do. No family should ever have to hear the words “you have cancer.”

This is where you come in. We need your help. Every single dollar gets us closer to better treatments and, one day, a cure. Whether it’s $20, $50, $1000 or more your donation will have a real impact on the lives of those battling blood cancer.

Join us in making a difference. If you’re able to donate, you can do so by scanning the QR Code below with your phone camera or visiting our donation site online.

Thank you for believing in this cause and in us. Let’s do this together!

Sincerely, 

Pasha Dashti, McKenzie Doss, Hayden Breier and the entire Cure Crew team
