Why I’m Swimming 5 Miles This August

I’m swimming 352 laps to raise funds for the American Cancer Society (ACS). I want to honor the memory of friends and colleagues I’ve lost to cancer, stand in solidarity with those who are still fighting, and celebrate the thrivers who’ve come through with strength and grace. Every stroke is for them.

This fundraiser is also a way for me to reconnect with my love for swimming and focus on my own health and well-being in the process. It’s a journey of healing, strength, and purpose.

And here’s why this effort matters even more:

Triple the impact:

If this cause resonates with you, I’d be so grateful for your support in helping me reach my fundraising goal. Every donation helps.

Thank you for being part of this.
