Thanks for donating to my swim Marathon! I am trying to raise $300 for the YWCA. My goal is to swim 105 lengths this year.
Dive into the excitement of the 2024 Flying Fish swim marathon! For nearly three decades, the swimmers of the YWCA Flying Fish have embraced the challenge of swimming nonstop for an hour (30 minutes for Greenfish). It's not just a test of physical endurance; it's also a journey of personal growth and maturity.
Join us on our aquatic adventure as we not only push our swimming limits but also make a splash for a great cause. It’s not just swimming; it’s swimming with purpose!
By being part of the marathon, you're not just making waves in the pool; you're making a difference in our community. We're not just seeking your support; we're inviting you to be a part of something extraordinary.
Where does the money go? Funds raised from the marathon support all aspects of YWCA Evanston/North Shore’s work. This includes:
-Providing healthy aquatic programming for all;
-Offering scholarships/financial aid to those who otherwise would not be able to afford swim lessons or swim team;
-Supporting families who access the YWCA’s domestic violence services, economic advancement and other social justice programs;
-Bringing violence prevention and racial equity programs to schools and other local organizations.
By helping to enhance our swim program and support families in need, money raised is reinvested in our children, families and community.
Here is how you can participate-
- Make a donation - If you would like to support my fundraising goal directly select my name for the Donation Recipient, if it is not already selected, when providing your donation information.
