Join CLASH Endurance for Charity Swim Events
CLASH Endurance is excited to partner with Swim Across America for a fantastic array of charity swim events happening soon in Daytona International Speedway's Lake Lloyd. Set in this stunning location, swimmers of all ages can participate in either a one-mile swim or a shorter 100-meter Dolphin Dash.
Making Waves for a Good Cause
The event will see individuals swim alongside inspiring Olympians dedicated to helping those affected by cancer. Participants are encouraged to focus on fundraising efforts as these funds go directly to supporting pediatric cancer research and the breakthroughs facilitated by Swim Across America.
Contributions That Matter
Swim Across America has been at the forefront of cancer fundraising since its inception in 1987, raising an impressive sum of over $100 million to date. This generous support has enabled significant advancements in medical treatments, including FDA-approved innovations like Keytruda and Opdivo, changing the lives of many.
Details of the Event
Scheduled for December 7, participants in the events will be asked to raise a minimum of $400 for the one-mile swim, while swimmers under 18 will need to reach a fundraising goal of $200. The Dolphin Dash has a registration fee of $50, without any fundraising requirements, making it an accessible option for everyone to join in.
