Annaleise Carr became the youngest person ever to swim across Lake Ontario following the traditional Marilyn Bell route which is considered one of the most difficult open water swims in the world. She swam for almost 27 hours and did so solely to raise funds and awareness for Camp Trillium which is a camp for kids with cancer and their families.
Annaleise's goal was to raise $30,000, but as of this writing she has raised more than $150,000 and put Camp Trillium on the world map. She is an humble inspiration to young and old and her smile lights a room.

Annaleise,
We think you did an awesome job. You were very courageous to swim across Lake Onatrio and we love that you did it in honor of families fighting cancer. You inspire us!

Wow, Annaleise!! I don't know what is more impressive-- that you were able to swim for so long or that you raised so much money doing it. You are an incredible person and an inspiration to us all. God bless you and all the children of Camp Trillium too. Post a Reply |
