Alcatraz swim fundraiser for Town Cats

On May 28th I will be competing in a 1.5 mile swim from Alcatraz to San Francisco to raise money for Town Cats, a private 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated exclusively to advocating for cat welfare and a no-kill adoption shelter for homeless cats and kittens in the Bay Area. 

Please go to http://www.towncats.org/donate  and donate now to this great cause! Donations are tax deductible (tax ID #: 31-1580952). Select "Alcatraz fundaiser" from the "one time donation" menu pull down. 

My goal is to raise $6,000 for Town Cats and finish the race in the top three of my age group. Every dollar I raise will go directly to Town Cats to advance their mission to save feral and homeless cats in Santa Clara County. If I come in the top three I will personally donate $500 to Town Cats. I appreciate your support!
