Since 1988, the Swim for Life has raised over $6M for AIDS, women’s health and the community. I'm thrilled to be part of it and hope you will join me to help raise $225,000 in support of this place that we love.

My name is Erik, and this is my sixth time participating in the Swim for Life. Every swim is its own adventure - from sharks, to hurricanes, bright sunshine, extra-brisk water - and uniquely special on its own. However, also, the event itself is remarkable among any other event I have participated in - for its longevity, for its traditions, and most importantly, its powerful sense of connection and community. The Swim for Life welcomes and supports all comers - an essential message of love and acceptance, and the power of togetherness, that is all the more urgent these days. Please join me in embracing the power of community and compassion to effect change and spread kindness throughout Provincetown, the Cape, and beyond.
