Amelia's annual fundraising swim!

Dear family and friends,

Every winter, I reach out to all my loved ones (that's you!) to humbly ask for donations to the One-Hour Swim, a fundraiser run by my beloved swim team, to support highly deserving LGBT+ causes here in New York City. You can donate here!

Below you can read about this year's beneficiary organizations, which perform outstanding work. Please consider a tax-deductible donation! 

Contributions of any amount are wonderful and do a lot of good. This year, every $50 you donate earns you an entry in a raffle for two round-trip tickets on JetBlue, between any two destinations the airline serves. (Flights become available one to two months after my February 15th swim.) So donate a lot and increase your chances!

Each year I am surprised and moved by your generosity--it's incredible to feel your support and see it directed toward people who need assistance. 

Thank you!

Amelia
