Welcome to My Personal Page
Many of you know I have been doing this event for the last several years and it remains important to me since all of the funds go to a local hospital for cancer research. Last year, I lost a dear friend to cancer and I hope swim in his memory.
In our lifetime, 1 in 2 men and 1 in 3 women will be diagnosed with cancer. I joined the SAA community so that, together, we can change that. I am challenging myself by swimming in the Chicago Open Water Swim and raising as much money to fight cancer as I can. Please support me by sponsoring my swim and making a gift. The money you give will go towards cancer research, prevention and treatment and will make an impact in the fight to find a cure. Thank you for your generosity and may it lead to a cancer-free world!
You can make a credit card donation here, or send a check to Swim Across America - Chicago, 47 Polk Street, Suite 100-561, Chicago, IL 60605.
Check should be made out to Swim Across America but please include a note mentioning my name as the swimmer you are supporting!
