Concatenation using variables

I need to have a result column in my report be a concatenation of text and conditionally, 1 or 2 addtional text 'values'.

"Donor+xxxx" - in every row
conditionally, if donor # from table 1 matches a donor # from table 2, I need to concatenate "+yyy"
Further, if the State in another table = a certain value, additional concatenate "+zzz'

Both the yyy & zzz are optional

End results could be any of:
Donor+xxxx
Donor+xxxx+yyy
Donor+xxxx+zzz
Donor+xxxx+yyy+zzz

yyy and zzz are not present in any table, just text values to concatenate.

 

I've been playing with using variables and concatenations and Related, but no success.

I'm not certain the best way to share data information.  Will the relationship diagram help? 

 

Here is what I've tried to start - I'm trying to create a measure on a donor transaction table checking to see if the donor number is in the CHG table.

 

TestReq =
 var CHG = RELATED(CHAGAS[TIDONR])
 RETURN
