Elijas, who is 13, and Melvin, who is 10, have both been swimming since baby swim. Last Sunday, they raised money by swimming over 3000 meters each for a full hour at Järfälla Swimming Society.
Every year, 300 children are affected by cancer in Sweden, and child cancer is the most common cause of death for children between 1 and 14 years. Thanks to successful research, 80 percent of the children who are affected today survive, and we at Rebel & Bird want to contribute to eradicating cancer by donating this month's charity to Järfälla Simsällskap and Swim of Hope.
