Join Step Into Swim on our mission to save children's lives by teaching them how to swim. A simple donation provides a child with lifesaving swim skills that will last their entire lives. Just $50 can provide a child with lifesaving swim lessons and reduce their risk of drowning by 88%.
PHTA is asking the assistance of everyone to help. 100% of your tax-deductible donation to Step Into Swim goes directly to learn to swim programs. Whether you are an individual that loves swimming, an aquatic professional, or a company looking to do something positive in the industry - We need YOU to support this important initiative.
Various organizations in the U.S. that provide swim lessons to children that cannot afford to learn this life-saving skill of swimming because of their economic or cultural standing. Each year, PHTA accepts applications from new or reoccurring organizations. Based on a set criterion, the committee selects organizations that will help contribute to creating 1 million new swimmers.

Drowning is the leading cause of death among children ages 1 to 4, but learning to swim from a qualified instructor can reduce that risk by 88% – meaning your donation can literally save a child from drowning.
Since 2012, Step Into Swim has funded swim lessons for more than 330,000 children across the U.S., providing them with the vital swim education they need at no cost. To continue this important, lifesaving work, we need donors like you. Donate today!
