I'm Swimming 5 Miles for American Cancer Society
Tax deductible
I’m swimming 5 miles this May to support the American Cancer Society in their fight for a world without cancer.
This cause is deeply personal. Last August, I lost my mom to non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. Though we’d been estranged for many years, we reconnected during her final year. I witnessed firsthand the pain, frustration, and helplessness that cancer brings, not just to those diagnosed, but to everyone who loves them.
Too many have suffered, and too many more will unless we keep investing in the research that saves lives. In today’s political climate, this need feels more urgent than ever. If this resonates with you, I’d be grateful for your support.
Swimming is what grounds me; it’s my rhythm, my release, my reset. Channeling that passion into something greater feels like the most meaningful way to give back. This isn’t just a swim; it’s a commitment to those we’ve lost and those still fighting.
The American Cancer Society holds a platinum rating on GuideStar, so you can give with confidence. Every donation makes a difference.
Thank you for your support, truly - Eileen
