Empower Black Families with Swim Skills

Tax deductible

Since 2019, Making Waves has been on a mission to provide life-saving swim scholarships to over 7,000 children and caregivers. Inspired by the incredible work of Outdoor Afro, we recognize the importance of ensuring that more Black children and their families learn essential water skills. Swimming is not just a fun activity; it’s a vital safety skill that can save lives.

With your generous support, we can cover the full cost of swim lessons, allowing families to reclaim their legacy and build a joyful, safe relationship with water. Every contribution makes a difference, empowering our community and fostering connections between Black families and the water.

Join us in this important endeavor. Together, we can ensure that every child has the opportunity to learn to swim and thrive. Thank you for being a part of this vital mission and for supporting our community.
