Armidale High Country Open Water Swimmers (HighCOWS) - fundraising for Anya's Wish
We might be called the HighCOWS, but we LOVE the cold water.
We are using our unique skills to fund raise for Anya’s Wish in 2023.
On Sunday 15 October, I am taking on a cold water swimming challenge in memory of Anya Zuber.
Anya was just 13 when she was diagnosed with high-grade metastatic osteosarcoma – an aggressive and life-threatening bone cancer. Anya sadly lost her very brave six-year battle with this awful disease last year, aged 19.
In honour of the 19 precious years that Anya lived for, I am taking on my 19 for 19 Challenge to raise funds for Children’s Cancer Institute.
Anya’s Wish was for her body and experience with the disease be focussed on the ongoing research to end childhood cancer, particularly sarcoma.
Children’s Cancer Institute is the only medical research institute in Australia wholly dedicated to cure childhood cancer and pioneer safer treatments for children – that’s why I’m taking on a challenge in her memory.
Please sponsor me today and help provide better outcomes for generations to come.
THANK YOU!
