Hope Floats Foundation partners with high quality swim schools to provide swim lesson scholarships for children whose families can not afford to pay. Drowning is a leading cause of death for children, and participation in formal swimming lessons reduces the risk of drowning by 88 percent. Our mission is to make sure that all children have access to learning this essential life skill, and to partner with swim schools to ensure they have the resources to make this happen in their own local communities.
