Welcome to Samantha's Page
Founded in 1987, Swim Across America has hosted charity swims with one goal: to raise money for innovative cancer research that would lead to breakthrough treatments and therapies. Since then, Swim Across America has raised over $100M to fund the next generation of pioneers in oncology and cancer-support care.
I joined Swim Across America because I believe in their mission and want to help give more families hope. If you are able, please support me by making a donation to help me reach my fundraising goal.
My whole life has been dedicated to the pool. I never saw myself giving up swimming, I want to swim for the rest of my life. When I found myself more than a year after college graduation having swum exactly once, I realized what I was starting to lose. I decided there is no better way to get back to doing what I have loved and cherished for my entire life than to sign up for Swim Across America.
Like it did for my brother before me, Swim Across America provides me with an excellent challenge and training goal, while fundraising for the noble cause of Cancer Research. Please consider donating, it’s greatly appreciated; if you are not able to donate your support and love will always be enough! I hope you will join me as I rediscover my passion for swimming and take on a fundraising challenge that certainly won’t be my last.
I am dedicating this swim to my Godfather, Wurm.
I hope I’m making you proud. I wish you could've watched me grow up and shared these years with me.
I will be taking on a 2 mile open water swim out of Boston Harbor on Saturday morning, August 10. Thank you so much!
