Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
As I'm sure you all know the GASA Polar Bear Swim has been going on for a number of years now. This was organised annually by Becky Fortunato, President of the Gibraltar Amateur Swimming Association. Sadly Becky passed away in April 2010 after a year long battle with cancer, and so we continue to hold this event in Memory of her.
Unfortunatley in one way or another we are all affected by Cancer and many local families benefit from the fantastic work carried out at The Royal Marsden.
The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity was obviously a cause very dear to Becky's heart and she asked us to make sure we continued to hold this annual event and donate all money raised to this very special charity.
The swim will be held on Thursday 26th December at 11.30am at Eastern Beach ( By Latinos on the Beach).
If you would like to take part in the Polar Bear Swim and help us raise as much money as possible, please register at GASA on tel 20072869
So please dig deep and donate now. Every penny counts :)
