The Swim Bowen Magic

If ever there was a time for reminders of how small, community-based initiates can have big, beautiful impacts it is now.

The SwimBowen Society was conceived in 2018 with the idea of providing financial support to Bowen Island residents during cancer treatment. The idea has blossomed into powerful action with a total of $63,800 Cancer Care Gifts given to date. We are in awe by the response to the open water fundraising events and the stunning generosity of our participants, donors, sponsors and volunteers.

Part of the SwimBowen magic is feeling empowered in the face of a disease that can make us feel so utterly powerless. The secret sauce is seeing our efforts in action in real time, making an immediate impact with our neighbours and friends during the hardest experience of all.
