Hi! my name is Eva, and this will be my 6th year
participating in the SAA Atlanta event, and my 4th
year swimming the 5k!

Since the beginning of my journey with Swim Across
America, I have swam in support and remembrance
of my dear teammate and friend, Grace Bunke, who
passed from bone cancer in 2018. "Amazing Grace"
Bunke made a huge impact on the SAA community, and the endless contributions that her and her family have made and still do today play an enormous part in the legacy that Grace has left in her time parted.

Childhood Cancer is the 2nd leading cause of
childrens deaths in the US but is still only receiving
less than 4% of government funding annually. SAA
has raised over $100 Million since 1987 for various
oncology research programs across America,
including funding 4 different leukemia and
Osteosarcoma projects at Children Healthcare of
Atlanta.

Please consider making a donation to my 2023 fund
in honor of Grace and so many others who cannot be
here today, and help us make waves to end cancer for
good.
