On September 2^nd I and a group of friends will swim Lake Austin from the 360 bridge to Tom Miller Dam (4.1 miles) and a month later in October I’ll ride my bike from Dallas to Austin (200 miles) to raise money and awareness for four Central Texas nonprofit organizations. 

Support me on my journey to help these 4 great organizations!

The four nonprofit organizations are:

Colin’s Hope serving our community by creating and supporting programs that aid in preventing children from drowning.

Ronald McDonald House of Austin serving families with critically ill or injured children by providing the family with a place to live near their hospitalized child.

Capital Area Food Bank, Kid’s Café Program serving more than 33,500 meals to an average 3,300 kids per month.

U.S. Army Wounded Warrior Program serving severely wounded soldiers, veterans and their families wherever they are and for as long as it takes.  My goal is to raise $4,000 through personal sponsorships.  It is very heart warning to think that together we can help each of the above nonprofit organizations continue their worthy missions.   

Over the last couple of months I’ve been training hard and preparing for this 204.1 mile adventure.  By reading this and by passing it on you’re helping me bring awareness to the organizations and I hope that you’ll consider sponsoring my efforts by making a donation in my name. 

My wife Amy will join me first by kayaking and serving as my Water Guardian (for safety, each swimmer has his or her own Water Guardian) for the swim, then, as my riding partner on the ride from Dallas to Austin. 

Every dollar you donate will be split four ways and given directly to the four chosen nonprofit organizations.  Thank you so very much for helping me reach my fundraising goal of $4,000.  I look forward to sending you a thank you note after the ride in October.

Support me on my journey to help these 4 great organizations!

Sincerely,



Rob Cunningham
