Personal message

On 12 June 2021, the MADSWIMMERS logistically supported by Big Bay Events will be attempting another extreme open water swim - this time in Langebaan, South Africa where they will be swimming a grueling 22km, 12km, and 7km to raise much-needed funds for Guild Cottage.

Guild Cottage provides a safe home for girl survivors of sexual abuse who represent all demographics in South Africa. Sexual abuse in South Africa as elsewhere cuts across all cultural, religious and socio economic classes. The girls are removed from their abusive circumstances and are referred to Guild Cottage by the courts. Our team of experts provide each child with appropriate therapy and help them to heal.  http://guildcottage.org/ 

Any amount donated no matter how small, will make a big difference in the lives of these girls.
