Fundraising

Fundraising for this program is optional, but we thought you might like to get a little head start for your next swim program.

So, if you choose to make a self-donation, or even fundraise, for the Winter Swim Program, you can also choose for those funds to be transferred to your 2025 Summer Ocean Swim Program fundraising target - effectively spreading your Summer Ocean Swim fundraising across winter & summer.

For example, if you make a self-donation of $200, which is the equivalent of $25 for each week of this program, that could be $200 already raised for your 2025 Summer Ocean Swim Program.

And if you choose to fundraise for this program, that can also be transferred to give you a head start for your 2025 Summer Ocean Swim Program when you sign up. You will just need to let your donors know that’s where their donations will be going.

What about if you decide not to participant in the 2025 Summer Ocean Swim program I hear you ask? Well that’s ok, then any donations made during with Winter Swim Program will contribute to your overall fundraising for CanToo so you can continue to support the vital work of Early Career Cancer Researchers.
