URGENT: Help Young Harvard Community Member Battle Lymphoma

A beloved community member is facing an unimaginable challenge. Their 24-year-old son—a bright, compassionate young man and a valued member of the Harvard community—has recently been diagnosed with lymphoma.

At just 24 years old, he should be focused on building his future—pursuing dreams and living a full, vibrant life. Instead, he is facing the battle of his life. This family has always navigated the world with strength and dignity, despite long-standing financial hardship. Now, the weight of medical bills, caregiving needs, and daily living costs has pushed them to a breaking point.

We are launching this fundraiser anonymously out of deep respect for the family’s privacy. Though their names are not shared here, their need is real and urgent. Every dollar raised will go directly to covering:

  • Medical and treatment expenses

  • Transportation to and from care

  • Groceries, rent, and daily necessities

  • Lost income due to caregiving responsibilities

We are calling on everyone—friends, fellow students and alumni, neighbors, and all who believe in the power of community—to stand in solidarity with this young man and his family.

If you’re unable to give, please consider sharing this campaign. Every act of support—big or small—helps lift some of the burden and reminds this family that they are not alone in this fight.

Thank you for standing with them. Your kindness and generosity mean the world.
