I'm supporting cancer research and prevention with Can Too Foundation.
This summer I am challenging myself to swim the furthest I have ever swum (2.8 km!!) to raise money for Australian Cancer research. I will be doing the Big Swim - a swim starting from Palm Beach and swimming around the headland and landing in Whale Beach.
I'm raising money for Can Too who support Australian Cancer research across all cancer types, including rare cancers. Can Too support early career researchers with grants for research projects. While the swim and the big waves will be tough and scary, it will be no where near as hard as a cancer diagnosis.
1 in 3 women and 1 in 2 men will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime, and that's a statistic that needs to change.
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 22,000 participants and raised over $30,000,000 to invest in over 150 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!
