Each year since 2018 the US Freediving Federation has been sending athletes to the CMAS Freediving World Championships. For 2026, we are sending 22 total athletes to perform at the Indoor Freediving World Championships in Serbia (June 2026) and Outdoor Freediving World Championships in Roatan (August 2026).

I am Jeremy Stephan, and I started the US Freediving Federation (USFF) in 2018. The USFF is part of CMAS which is the worldwide governing body for all underwater sport activity - and sits under the International Olympic Committee (IOC).

It takes a village, or a pod, and we are asking you for support either financially or simply sharing this GoFundMe across your social media channels. Any and all support is greatly appreciated. The total funds received will be distributed amongst all 22 athletes.

Please keep in mind that you are donating to the US Freediving Federation which is a non-profit organization (501c3). Your donation may be tax deductible so please talk to your account or a qualified financial advisor. We are happy to send you a receipt if it is needed for tax purposes.

Thank you very much for your generosity and support. It is appreciated.
