The project ‘ Travesía Rosa 2024'

We are excited to announce the 5th edition of the Travesía Rosa, scheduled for October 5, 2024 at 7 am (meeting time) from the Club Universitario Buenos Aires with arrival at the Club Naútico San Isidro between two and three hours after the start of the crossing.

We have understood that we are a de facto NGO and that we must work as such. That is why this year we are making adjustments again to be able to continue growing, helping and taking the message of prevention further and further,

Potenciar solidario will be the NGO that will receive the funds raised and transform them into mammograms. We are also accompanied by OWA, Club Naútico San Isidro and Club Universitario Buenos Aires, as donors and collaborators and we are looking for more sponsors to fully cover the cost of the trip and thus be able to allocate more funds to the purchase of mammograms.

The crossing will be from the Club Universitario Buenos Aires, we will embark and go to the starting point at the border between the Federal Capital and the Province of Buenos Aires on the Rio de la Plata. We will enter the water and swim 11 km to the ramp at the end of the Club Naútico San Isidro.

 

Project Goals

1 in 8 women may develop breast cancer in their lifetime. If detected in time, the prognosis is very good. Have check-ups once a year, take care of yourself.  Travesía Rosa raise funds for mammograms to help detect breast cancer early and prevent avoidable death.
