On April 22, Yamia and Asaf Benhaim hosted the “Tacos, Tequila, & Totally Inspirational Cancer Survivors”, a fundraiser for Cancer for College at their Carmel Valley home.
Cancer for College is a nonprofit organization founded by former Canyon Crest Academy teacher Craig Pollard. Pollard, a two-time cancer survivor and double amputee, created Cancer for College to provide scholarships for cancer patients to help them afford college after facing overwhelming medical debt. Thanks to their contributions and the support of friends and attendees, the event raised over $30,000.
