Wanna Become a Superhero?

I'm on a mission to wipe out EBV and EBV-associated diseases, which include blood cancers. My brother-in-law, Matt Cwiertny, passed away on October 3, 2009 at the age of 24--way too young-- from an EBV-induced NK T-cell Lymphoma. My family and I want to make sure other families and patients do not have to endure the nightmare that is battling a blood disease and blood cancer... and we can do that by raising funds and helping to find a CURE. So that's the story. Help us raise funds for EBV and EBV-associated diseases by going to THE MATT CWIERTNY MEMORIAL website or to our Charity page on Crowdrise. Thank you so much for your support!
