On March 7, 2025, I will participate in Swim for Hope, in honor and memory of my amazing friend Aiden O’Keefe. Aiden was an inspiration, even when he was battling Leukemia (ALL) - he was a hero!

He was a funny, amusing and loyal friend. He was a champ at everything - sports, jokes, outdoors, fun, friendship and family! He fought so hard to battle his cancer over 2 years, and he did it with humor and strength and was an inspiration. He passed away in 2022, way too young at age 13 and I miss him very much.

Aiden will never be forgotten, and participating in Swim for Hope gives me an opportunity to keep his memory and amazing spirit alive. It's an honor to do this for him. Every stroke I swim will be for him! 

Swim for Hope means that we can contribute funds to help make a difference in the lives of others who are battling this awful disease.

With your support, we can make a difference and reach our fundraising goal. Please sponsor my swim relay - Aiden and I thank you.

Swim for Hope is a partnership between Swimming Newfoundland and the Cancer Care Foundation which raises funds to support cancer patients and their families in Newfoundland & Labrador. 

Your generosity supports cancer patients who are facing a cancer journey. 

Please help support me in this important cause by contributing a sponsor/pledge in honor and memory of my dear friend, Aiden O’Keefe. 

Whatever you can give will help - it all adds up! I greatly appreciate your support and will keep you posted on my progress. 

Thank you for your support!

Aiden - this swim is for you Buddy~
