Cancer is a word that no one wants to hear. It is also a word that has touched everyone’s life in one way or another. In one year alone, over 1 million new cases will be diagnosed in the United States. However, with all of the fundraising efforts sprouting up to fund research, such as dance marathons, 24-hour walks, and many similar events across the country, more and more people are becoming involved with the fight against cancer.
One of these organizations is Swim Across America (SAA), which uses the swimming community specifically to band together across the nation to fund research, treatment, and cancer prevention.
SAA was developed by Jeff Keith and Matt Vossler, who envisioned this non-profit as a sequel to their Run Across America in 1987. Since then the organization has grown to over 5,000 annual participants from all over the United States aging from as young as four years old to 78 years old. These swimmers come from all different backgrounds, recreational swimmers, masters swimmers, open water swimmers, Olympic athletes, and many more, uniting to support those in need through the love of a sport they share.
