In 2024, I will swim the English Channel for Blue Dragon!
On July 24, 2022, I swam my first 20km ultra-marathon open water event in Queensland (Australia) to raise money for Blue Dragon Children’s Foundation to rescue victims of human trafficking and to raise awareness about Blue Dragon’s mission and strategy to end human trafficking in Vietnam. Together we raised $20,565.25 and rescued 6 victims of human trafficking!
My next dream, is to swim the English Channel for Blue Dragon, raising money and awareness with every stroke along the way.
Raising $200,000 will end human trafficking in 10 villages across the mountains of Vietnam. Money raised will send kids to school, build houses for families in crisis situations, buy livestock for families, train villagers to identify and prevent human trafficking and support survivors of human trafficking to rebuild their lives.
The anticipated date of the swim will be between July 26 and August 1, 2024.
Between now and then there are three giant training challenges:
Your support means the world to me and even more to people whose lives we will save.
Together, we can change the world! From England to France... one stroke at a time!
