After 70 days alone at sea, Katie Spotz became the youngest person to row the Atlantic Ocean solo at age 22. No stranger to overcoming challenges, Katie ran across the Mojave Desert unsupported, has cycled across America twice and is also the first person to swim the 325-mile Allegheny River. In 2010, Katie was named a #Glamour Woman of the Year. Throughout her adventures, Katie wasn't just seeking to make history. She was also raising money for safe drinking water projects around the world, totaling over $275,000 in funding. We are excited to announce that Katie has decided to join the Because I said I would. staff at our international headquarters in Ohio. Katie and our other 11 team members work to better humanity through promises made and kept.
