Womens Cancer Resource Center Annual Swim a Mile
Dear Friends & Family,
I am jumping into the water for my 10th year to be part of the Women’s Cancer Resource Center’s annual Swim A Mile. This Mother's Day I will be rejoining our mighty team of women (The Medusas), where each of us will swim 72 lengths/36 laps to raise money for WCRC. The Medusas are invigorated by being joined by the younger generation, Zazie and Divia, high school seniors and daughters of Laura and Yael. Zazie also joined us for the first time last year.
Our official team goal is $5,000 for this year, but we actually exceeded that last year due to your generous donations. We hope you can help us do it again! I invite you to make a donation of any amount by going to my fundraising page. You can also donate here. This year I will be swimming in honor of so many who are living with and through cancer (you know who you are!) and most especially in honor of Sue Encherman, who died last week. Sue was witty, kind, filled with an unending thirst for joy and adventure. The ultimate connector of people and friends, we owe our close friends in the Bay area to her introductions.
WCRC provides free education, supportive services and emergency assistance to improve the lives of women with cancer, especially low-income persons, people of color, immigrants and members of the LGBTQUIA community. With the current attacks on Medicaid and our health care system generally, it is more important than ever to support people from all backgrounds to get the appropriate care, support and treatment they need.
The Medusas are ready to take the plunge. Thank you for supporting WCRC, and us!
Patti
