Dear Friends & Family,

Welcome to my 2024 Sound to Cove Swim Across America Home Page.  This is my 3rd year participating in this event and I’m asking for your support to help me reach my goal of $750!  

The Sound to the Cove annual Swim Across America event has raised over $11M since its inception in 2001 and has helped support some of the most dedicated and renowned beneficiaries in the world of cancer research, treatment, and prevention.  They include Memorial Sloan-Kettering, Cold Spring Harbor Lab, The University of Texas MD Anderson Children’s Cancer Hospital (The Stacey Leondis Fellowship), The Feinstein Institute at North Shore LIJ, and SHARE Cancer Support.  The team at SAA Nassau/Suffolk Long Island is an all-volunteer team, dedicated to maximizing the direct donations to our beneficiaries. Since our start, over 81% of every dollar raised goes directly to the cause… That is truly world-class.

This year, I will be swimming 5 kilometers on "Team Amphenol" in memory and honor of all those who have been directly and indirectly affected by cancer. A friend has been supporting his wife through a lengthy chemotherapy treatment this year and I'll be thinking about Carol during my time in the water!

I am asking you to please make a secure online donation (using the blue DONATE NOW button toward the top right of this page) and help me “Make Waves in the Fight Against Cancer”! 

If you are interested in joining "Team Amphenol" and helping in the fundraising by swimming with us or via a personal challenge through SAA MY WAY, please reach out to me directly.

For more information on our Beneficiaries, Please visit the “Your Impact” dropdown section at the bottom of our SAA Nassau/Suffolk Long Island Website.

Thank you!!

Paul Schned
