Did You Know... Drowning is the leading cause of accidental death for children ages 5 and under. Tragically, the equivalent of 13 school buses full of children lose their lives to drowning every year. The Hope Floats Foundation helps us to change this heartbreaking reality—and you can help make a lasting difference.

About Hope Floats

Hope Floats Foundation Inc. is a 501(c)3 registered nonprofit, operating throughout the United States to administer swim lesson scholarships in partnership with swim schools nationwide using a "local funds for local kids" model. We are proud of our partner swim schools for working with us to ensure that the high-quality swimming lessons they offer can be made accessible to children whose families would otherwise not be able to afford to participate. Drowning is a leading cause of childhood death, and participation in formal swimming lessons reduces the risk of drowning by 88%. Donations to Hope Floats Foundation are tax-deductible (EIN: 81-2681890). Please refer to our website for more information: https://www.hopefloats.foundation.
