SAA's Bit:
“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 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, 11600 N. Community House Rd., Suite 100, Charlotte, NC 28277.
Check should be made out to Swim Across America but please include a note mentioning my name as the swimmer you are supporting!”

Hi all!
Like many of my peers, I know countless family members and friends who have been affected in some way by cancer. My maternal grandfather, for example, had melanoma and my paternal grandfather had hepatic (liver) cancer. Some of you may also know that my parents are themselves involved with cancer research, and this too has given me an additional lens through which to understand and appreciate the importance of the field.
Through doing my part in this fundraiser, I hope to contribute even just a little bit to the future of cancer research, treatment, and maybe even its cure. Thanks for reading!
