Robby schelsinger Foundation

In the early nineties, a man from Reno swam around the perimeter of Lake Tahoe for charity. Twenty-four years later, his son is repeating his incredible journey in his father’s memory...   "Now it’s his turn!"

For years, I’ve thought about how I can make a difference and help those who have lost someone as well...

Robby Schlesinger, Founder

In memory of my father, I will be swimming around Lake Tahoe. It is my goal to get as many individuals and businesses involved to raise awareness and monies, with portions benefiting the Solace Tree of locally, as well as LivingWorks Organization and the AFSP ( American Foundation for Suicide Prevention ) nationally.

“For years, I’ve thought about how I can make a difference and help those who have lost someone as well. This July, I will be repeating the swim around Lake Tahoe. It is my goal to raise awareness. With your participation, we have the potential to make an impact within our community. "Together, we will make a real difference”, Robby goes on to say...
