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 did this swim for the first time back in 2018 to help raise money for cancer research as well as to raise awareness. A few months ago, my cousin Gina sadly passed away from breast cancer, and I am doing the swim this year to help raise money for cancer research in honor of Gina. I hope you will consider donating, as every little bit helps.
Thanks for helping! #MakeWavesToFightCancer.
