It's hard to believe that after a long summer of training and fundraising, we're heading into the last week before the Swim Across America Baltimore Open Water Swim. I'm feeling ready and excited about swimming 3 miles on Sunday, September 22.
But, before the race, there's one last challenge I want to push for! Back in June, I set my initial fundraising goal was to raise $1500 for the Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins Medicine. and supporters smashed it in two weeks.
Then I doubled down on my goal and said let's go for $3000, and supporters smashed that one too!
As of today, Team Goldfish members have contributed $3,545 to cancer research. Which is amazing!
But, all this swim training has made me competitive in service of a good cause. So I'm really hoping that there are some additional Team Goldfish supporters out there who will help us get to $4,000. And here's the incentive--I will match up to $200 in contributions.
So make a contribution through my SAA Fundraising Page between now and September 21, 2013 (I get an email when you donate), I'll add up everything that gets donated this week, and making a contribution to match it (up to $200) before the big race!
Thanks to all who have contributed thus far! I'm honored to have you support me as I make waves to fight cancer.
