Welcome to Jim Farmer's (The Farmer) Personal Page
Thank you for your support and help in fighting cancer 2021!
Welcome back to our swimmers and donors from our 2019 swim...then known as Team Towers! WE have survived COVID and are once again working to defeat cancer in our lifetime with our 2021 swim
Our team was started by Dr. Mike Firth in 2019 while we were in SF10 and our swimmers across the country were great raising monies for that years children's cancer research.
Why I swim....
For me personally, - no more Ken's! (see story at innernews.org)
Also I swim in honor of my grandfather, dad, uncle, aunt, friends, and my brother Ken, all died of cancer. In addition, my friend and assistant fire chief, and SF or Denver heart, Troy (Standing on an EA degree) passed away this February.
There are not many of us that have not been touched by cancer in our families... our swimming, and your help, could help save lives... it just takes a donation. You make the difference!
Thank you.

Also...
1 in 2 men and 1 in 3 women will be diagnosed with cancer. I joined the Swim Across America community so that, together, we can change that.
If you are able, please support me by making a gift. The researchers we are funding are in our community and are the next generation of cancer pioneers. Without Swim Across America early stage funding, they are not able to conduct trials that can lead to breakthroughs that can save lives. Thank you for helping make an impact in the fight to find a cure!
