On December 30, 2024, Megan Voss, a Waukesha West High School senior, passed away because of the injuries she suffered in a tragic car accident. As a result, donors have set up a GoFundMe account in her honor. This fundraising initiative has raised about $34,000 as of January 1, 2025.
The GoFundMe page is titled In Memory of Megan Voss: Support Her Family. It expressed its sympathies and took it up in the hope that they would secure funds to help out Megan’s family. Beyond her personal qualities, the campaign placed quite a lot of emphasis on her academic performance, stating that she had a 4.0 GPA and that she was an honors student.
The fundraiser is handled by Abigail Voss, Megan’s cousin. The donation description reads:
“Megan was a wonderful and beautiful young woman who touched the lives of those around her. If you ever met Megan then you know she had the biggest smile ever! She was a light to all who knew her. Megan was a 4.0 high honors senior at Waukesha West, on the cheerleading team and had a scholarship to a private Christian college in Arizona where she planned to pursue a nursing degree in hopes to become a doctor one day.”
It also points out that Megan’s dog, Bleu, who was also in the accident and is alive but has quadriplegia in his back legs.
“He’s at an emergency vet currently on heavy sedatives and pain meds.”
The campaign urges:
“During this challenging time, I am hoping to raise support to cover funeral expenses along with any other bills that may arise in addition to vet bills. We ask that you only give as you feel led.”

Mike Masch, an eyewitness, told Fox6:
"My daughter said, ‘Dad, dad! There’s a horrible accident.’ The car was up on the curb, you try to get her to wake up and she was unresponsive."
