Hello Friends & Family!

I’m incredibly excited to announce my selection into the Chicago River Swim, a charitable event hosted by the Chicagoland non-profit A Long Swim.

I'm one of 500 lucky individuals who will soon swim among the city's famous skyscrapers and under its iconic bridges!

Prior to participating on Sunday, September 20, 2026, I've committed to fundraise on behalf of the event's two beneficiaries: supporting collaborative ALS research and providing swim lessons for Chicago's underprivileged youth.

I'd be honored if you could make a contribution, of any amount, toward my fundraising goal. Further, if you are as inspired as I am, please share this with your network and plan to witness me conquer the Chicago River on Sunday morning, September 20.

Thanks very much.
