Support access to a
life-saving skill.
Drowning is the #1 cause of accidental death in children under 4. Your support helps kids and families who can't afford lessons access the most important skill they'll ever learn.
Sponsor a Child
Your sponsorship helps us reach more children, grow our adaptive program, and keep lessons affordable for families who need it most. We'll provide a sponsorship receipt you can use as a business marketing or community relations expense.
After your contribution, we'll issue a receipt marked “Sponsorship for Community Adaptive Swim Lessons” — documentation you may use for business marketing expense records. Always consult your tax professional.

Support the Safety Fund / Gift a Lesson
Every contribution — big or small — helps us keep lessons affordable, grow our adaptive program, and reach more families. No strings, no overhead nonsense.
What your gift does
Under current IRS guidelines (2024–2026), individual gifts under $18,000/year don't trigger gift tax reporting. Your contribution is simply a gift toward our community mission.

Why this matters so much
Drowning doesn't discriminate — but access to swim lessons does. Your donation changes that.
Kids with disabilities face even greater risk
Children with autism spectrum disorder are 160x more likely to drown than neurotypical children. Kids with Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, sensory processing disorders, and other conditions are significantly more at risk — yet swim instruction is rarely covered by insurance or assistance programs.
At Wildlife Water School, we specialize in adaptive swim instruction. We teach children with disabilities the skills that protect their lives. Your donation ensures cost is never the reason a family says no.
