Working Together!

The NESPA Foundation partners with like-minded organizations to amplify our impact. Together, we expand our reach and fundraising, ensuring more children in our community have the chance to learn to swim.

Step Into Swim is an initiative of the Pool & Hot Tub Alliance committed to creating more swimmers. With Olympic medalist Rowdy Gaines at the helm, Step Into Swim has invested in the next generation of swimmers and supports learn-to-swim programs. Through free access to swimming lessons, Step Into Swim helps extend a safe and healthy pool experience to underserved communities.  Learn more

Every Child a Swimmer (ECAS) was created by The International Swimming Hall of Fame. The organization is committed to working with everyone to provide swim lessons for children who come from homes where financial resources are limited. ECAS believes every child in the world should be educated and trained in water safety. Swimming is the only sport that has the potential to save your life. Learn more
