I am swimming in honor of my dad Mark Kavanaugh. He was a huge supporter of swimming and even participated in Swim Across America. He did not let his cancer diagnosis slow him down or impact his positive outlook in life. I ask you to consider donating if you are able to help fund research and treatment of this disease.

 In our lifetime, 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!
