The money raised from &quot;Against the Tide&quot; is used to find the causes of breast cancer and seek real prevention of the disease.  <\/p>\n<p>Each event includes a competitive swim at 9 a.m. for swimmers who can complete the one-mile course in 30 minutes or less, a fitness\/recreational swim at 9:30 a.m. and a three-mile fitness walk at 10 a.m.  <\/p>\n<p>Participants can register for one or both events by calling (800) 649-6222 for an entry form.  On-line registration is available at <a href=http:\/\/www.mbcc.org\/swim\/ target=_blank>www.mbcc.org\/swim<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Participants must raise a minimum of $100 in contributions for the benefit of the Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition for each event in which they participate and should register by June 21 for the Hopkinton event and August 16 for the Brewster event. <\/p>\n<p>Registration materials include tips for preparing for an open water swim or a safe walking experience, a sample fundraising letter for soliciting donations and a list of fundraising ideas to help participants increase their effectiveness in raising funds.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFunds raised by the &#39;Against the Tide&#39; swims and walks are crucial to helping save women\u2019s lives,\u201d said Deborah Forter, Executive Director of MBCC.  \u201cThis year in Massachusetts alone, 4,700 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer and more than 900 will die from it.  The fight to eradicate this disease is not over.<\/p>\n<p>Paulette Caron Andreas was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 24 in 1980.  \u201cBreast cancer can strike women of all ages.  I  hope that families will participate in the walk\/swims and help support MBCC in their quest to find the preventable causes of breast cancer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition is a nonprofit organization committed to stopping the breast cancer epidemic in Massachusetts through activism, advocacy, research and education.  Founded in 1991, the MBCC\u2019s focus is on finding the causes of breast cancer and seeking real prevention of this devastating disease.
