Making Waves: Recap of Our Rainy Picnic Fundraiser for Cancer Research
Hello fellow swimmers and supporters,
I am thrilled to share the exciting outcome of our recent picnic fundraiser, despite the unexpected rainy weather! Yesterday, we gathered in the office instead of our planned outdoor setting, but that didn't dampen our spirits one bit. In fact, we had an incredible turnout and raised a total of $1710 for cancer research through the Can Too Foundation!
The generosity and support from everyone who attended truly warmed my heart. Your contributions will make a real difference in funding innovative research and programs aimed at preventing, treating, and ultimately defeating cancer. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being a part of this meaningful cause.
Now, let's talk about the food! Despite the change in venue, we enjoyed a delicious spread that was nothing short of spectacular. From sliders to skewers, salads to falafel, and even mouthwatering lemon tarts, there was something to satisfy every craving. A huge thank you to everyone who contributed to the culinary delights and made our indoor picnic feel like a gourmet feast.
Once again, thank you to everyone who participated, donated, and helped make our rainy picnic fundraiser a success. Your generosity and support mean the world to me as I continue training for the Swim Trek in the Greek Islands and raising funds for cancer research. Stay tuned for more updates and upcoming events as we journey together towards our fundraising goal.
Together, we are making waves and making a difference.
Here we go!
I'm supporting cancer research and prevention with Can Too Foundation.
1 in 3 women and 1 in 2 men will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. This means that potentially someone we love may have to battle cancer, and that's a statistic that needs to change.
So I asked myself, "what can I do to help?" That's where the Can Too Foundation came in! Can Too provides professionally coached training programs for participants of any fitness level to run, swim and cycle their way to a healthier lifestyle and a cancer-free world.
In return, I am raising valuable funds that go towards innovation in the prevention, care, and control of cancer. Since 2005, Can Too Foundation has trained over 18,000 participants and raised over $25,000,000 to invest in over 200 one-year cancer research grants.
It would be fantastic if you could sponsor me, or even better join me in a program!
Thank you for your support!
Thank you to my Sponsors
