Time is one of the most meaningful gifts a community can make.

This year, our swimmers spent 1,700 hours building skills, confidence, and joy in the water β€” supported by 4,528 volunteer hours of encouragement and adaptive help from our helpers.

These hours matter. Children with disabilities thrive in the water, gaining strength, confidence, and essential safety skills. And with drowning risks significantly higher for autistic children, access to safe, supported swim time is lifesaving.

Giving Tuesday is a week from today! This Giving Tuesday, your support fuels these hours of growth, safety, and belonging.

Together, We Swim!
