Segra is proud to support the Swim Across America – Charlotte Open Water Swim as an official sponsor. Segra will be co-hosting a complimentary Kickoff Breakfast for the business community with Swim Across America (SAA) on Thursday, August 3, from 8-10am at Segra’s corporate headquarters located at 11215 North Community House Road in Charlotte, NC.
“Swim Across America – Charlotte raises funds for the Atrium Health Levine Cancer Institute and Levine Children’s Hospital to fund research and patient programs,” said Kevin T. Hart, Segra CEO. “All the funds raised through SAA—Charlotte charitable programs, such as the August 3rd kickoff and the October 8th swim, stay in our community. At our breakfast event, we will hear from two esteemed oncologists and learn how our business community can become involved in supporting this wonderful charity.”
Joining Hart at the August 3rd Kickoff Breakfast will be Dr. Greg Knight and Dr. Brittany Ragon from Levine Cancer Institute, both are recipients of SAA grant funding for their cancer research programs. Swim Across America CEO Rob Butcher and 2012 Olympian Tyler Clary will also be in attendance.

October 8 will be the seventh SAA—Charlotte. To date, the annual open water swim has raised $1 million for cancer research at the Levine Cancer Institute and Levine Children’s Hospital.
