Once again......I am so excited to be participating in the Annual Swim With A Mission! My goal is to complete with 10k swim in a better time than last year. Even though I completed it last year, I truly did not train as I should have trained. I was almost pulled from the water and made all the staff crazy because they felt like they needed to wait for me to come in! This year, I will easily make the cutoff because I am training!!! I am serious about the time and not just about the finish, although, clearly, that's the plan anyway.
As part of this event I am raising money for Veterans and I will also be swimming in memory of a fallen soldier from NH.
Since being founded in 2017, Swim With A Mission has given almost $11.5 Million to service and support organizations that provide critical services to our Veterans.
Every year, SWAM focuses on important needs in the Veterans community and provides grants to worthy Veteran service and support programs. Each organization submits an application for a grant so we can consider how the money we raise each year can make the most impact in the community. The recipient of the grants provide services and support including mental health services, scholarships for children of a parent who died in service, taking care of homeless Veterans, providing rides and financial assistance to Veterans, providing health care services to Veterans, providing permanent housing for Veterans, K9’s for Veterans, and help with PTSD. Please visit http://www.swam.org to learn more about the organizations that Swim With A Mission supports.
Please help me reach my fundraising goal. Any amount will make a difference in the lives of Veterans and their families!!
Thank you!!
