(1)

A child dies from drowning every minute across the globe. It’s the silent epidemic that no one is talking about. The absolute blessing here is that drowning is preventable. Through pooling our resources and connecting underserved children with providers who can help educate families how to keep their children safe and who can give children the ability to save their own lives through learning to sw

im, community by community, we can reverse the tide of child drownings worldwide. Hope Floats is the vehicle through which ordinary people and businesses can pool together to do something extraordinary: Save the lives of children across the globe by giving them the life-saving skill of swimming. Hope Floats raises money by partnering with individuals, just like yourself, and businesses that want to do good works in their community. That money is used to give scholarships and tuition assistance to underprivileged children who might not otherwise be able to afford swim lessons. How Can I Help?

* Participation in formal swim lessons reduces risk of drowning by 88%! (National Institute of Health, Arch Pediatr Adolesc Med, 2009)
* According to Griffith University research (2013), young children who participate in swim lessons at an early age are:
* 20 months ahead in understanding directions
* 17 months ahead in story recall
* 10 months ahead in cognitive skills
* 7 months ahead in fine motor skills

Every child deserves to be safe in the water — but for many families, swim lessons simply aren’t in the budget.

Your donation to our Swim Lesson Scholarship Fund changes that.
$480 keeps a child swimming all summer long.
Set up a recurring donation, for just $1.50 a day($45/month) you can make a child safer!.

Drowning is the #1 cause of accidental death in children ages 1–4, and it’s largely preventable. When you give today, you’re not just funding a class — you’re giving a family peace of mind and a child a life-saving skill they’ll carry forever.

Thank you Dr.Beachgem10 for ensuring we are all properly educated!

Drowning is real, common and preventable. Talking about ‘dry drowning’ diverts attention from the effective methods to protect kids and prevent these events from happening. Concerns about ‘dry drowning’ also stop parents from signing kids up for water safety classes, which can be life saving. Drowning is silent and fast, but preventable.
