SWIM FOR HOPE
Carina Bruwer founded Swim For Hope in 2014 as a fundraising platform through which open water swimmers can dedicate a solo or group swim to a worthy South African cause. Since its inception, Swim For Hope has raised over R1,000,000 for different charities, in addition to millions in media coverage.
“Swimming For Hope” is what inspires Carina and hence any marathon and/or extreme swim she attempts is currently done under this banner. Her main beneficiaries have included the Little Fighters Cancer Trust, Muzukidz and the Tribuo Fund.
