Mission Statement
Our mission is to prevent under-resourced kids from drowning by giving free swim lessons to those who are first in their family to learn to swim.
Description
We want to change your family tree when it comes to swimming. By helping your child to be the first in your family to learn to swim, we hope to not only prevent your child from drowning but also believe that swimming skills will be passed on to your future generations. You can break the chain in your family history of not being able to swim. Some day this may save you or someone you love.
We partner with swim schools and clubs to provide no-cost swim lessons to under-resourced first generation swimmers. A first generation swimmer is someone who is the first in their immediate family to learn how to swim.
