Swim For Change Project
Our Past Missions
Guatemala
2021
Our first mission took place in La Antigua Guatemala. We were able to teach 50 victims of sexual abuse how to swim over the course of a week. In addition to swim lessons we also fed, and gifted the children with swim essentials and bibles
Guatemala
2022
In 2022 we were able to return to Guatemala and expand our mission to teach 100 victims of abuse and underprivileged children. Throughout the week over 1/2 of the children learned to swim across an Olympic sized swimming pool
We fed, as well as gifted the children with swim essentials, books, and clothes
Costa Rica
2023
In 2023 we expanded our mission to La Fortuna Costa Rica. We partnered with the organization Think Kindness, and together we were able to bring swim lessons to 50 orphaned and underprivileged children.
We were able to gift the children with swim essentials and books
America
We partnered with AMIKO, a New Hampshire organization that serves new Americans and refugee children. During our workshop, we taught over 30 of their children how to swim. We plan to continue our partnership with this incredible organization.
2024
Panama
2024
During our mission to Panama, we partnered with Hearts of Cry Ministry to teach special needs orphans in their care. For two weeks, we provided therapeutic and fun swim lessons to the children and trained the orphanage staff on conducting lessons, enabling them to continue providing the essential healing that swimming offers.
While in Panama, we had the incredible privilege of teaching an entire beach of over 50 people to swim. Most of these individuals lived near the water and visited the ocean daily, yet did not know how to swim. In total, we served over 75 people during this mission, ranging in age from 2 to 70 years old
