Supporting the NESPA Foundation can create lifesaving opportunities.
For many families, a pool is a place where memories are made, friendships grow and summers come alive. But access to swim education and water safety resources is not available everywhere, leaving many children and families at greater risk around water. That's where the NESPA Foundation is making a difference.
The NESPA Foundation is dedicated to creating safer communities through swim safety initiatives, drowning prevention efforts and expanded access to life-saving swim lessons throughout the Northeast. Through charitable giving and community partnerships, the organization helps connect children and families with the resources they need to stay safe in and around the water.
Supporting the Foundation is one of the most meaningful ways industry professionals, manufacturers, distributors and consumers can give back while helping protect future generations. Every donation helps fund programs focused on swim safety education, drowning prevention and opportunities for children to learn essential swimming skills. The Foundation also uses contributions to support initiatives where funding is needed most.
Donors looking to maximize their impact have several opportunities to contribute. Through the Every Child A Swimmer program, donations are matched by the NESPA Foundation and then matched again by the Bill Kent Foundation, turning every $1 donated into $4 that can be used to provide swim lesson grants for children throughout the Northeast.
The Foundation also supports the Step Into Swim initiative. Donations made through this program are matched by the NESPA Foundation and matched again by the Pool & Hot Tub Alliance, creating another opportunity to quadruple the impact of every dollar given and expand access to swim lessons for children.
Whether you're a member of the pool and spa industry or simply someone who believes every child should have access to water safety education, your support can make a lasting difference. By investing in swim lessons and drowning prevention programs today, donors are helping build safer communities for years to come.
As a registered 501(c)(3) charitable organization, donations to the NESPA Foundation are tax deductible, making it even easier for individuals and businesses to contribute to a cause that delivers life-changing results.
