Swim Across America


We invite you to join us on Jetties beach for this special event in July. PASCON staff, patients, board and volunteers take part in the event by serving on the event committee, swimming and volunteering at the event.


Swim Across America is a national organization that raises money to support cutting edge cancer research. As most things are, on Nantucket, the event is a bit different. Our small community does not host any research institutions, but we do, thanks in part to Swim Across America, provide cancer treatment and care locally. PASCON is a long-time beneficiary, alongside the Nantucket Cottage Hospital of the Nantucket swim. Funds granted to us help support our clinical care as well as our support groups for patients and families living with cancer.
