Story

Dear Family, Friends and Neighbors,

I am raising money for my friend’s mom’s organization - Wender Weis Foundation for Children by swimming laps. For each dollar I raise, I will swim 25 yards. The money will go to purchasing food and household supplies for financially vulnerable families in need during the holidays. 

Examples of the items are:
  • Diapers and wipes
  • Toothpaste, Toothbrush, Shampoo and Conditioner – full sized toiletries
  • Pop-top soup cans (with protein)
  • Grocery and Gas Station Gift Cards
  • Sets of Legos
  • Art Activity Projects

Stay safe and enjoy your holidays. 

Sincerely,
Christopher (age 9)
