DROWNING IS THE LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH OF CHILDREN AGES 1-4

HELP US CHANGE THIS STATISTIC!

Your continued support will help us change these statistics and help end childhood drowning & provide preventative services in our community!

Kendall spent 2 years bringing light and joy wherever she went. She had the most contagious smile and loved to cuddle. Her little hugs squeezed so tightly, our hearts couldn’t help but overflow. Our Kendall bug loved every minute of being in the water.

Kendall gained her wings on June 22nd, 2019 in a drowning accident in our backyard pool. Our world was turned upside down and will never be the same.

In honor of her life, we dedicate our lives to education in water safety awareness and providing invaluable self-rescue swim lessons and preventative resources to help end childhood drowning.

SURVIVAL SWIM LESSONS: THE FLOAT IS THE FOUNDATION OF EVERYTHING WE TEACH

We teach all children to float first. They will master this vital survival skill before moving on to more advanced swimming skills.

All students will learn to navigate the water from various presentations, move themselves to the surface, roll onto their back, and maintain an independent float.

As developmental readiness and time allows, students will learn a short basic swim, roll to their back, float and breath, and flip back over to swim again.

We were able to provide 47 students with survival swim lessons through our Founder affiliate program and were able to help fund 22 of those students fees through our donations and Founder Pay It Forward program in 2023.

We were able to provide 63 students with survival swim lesson through our Founder affiliate program and were able to help fund 21 of those students fees through our donations and Founder Pay It Forward program in 2024.
