2027 Youth Learn-to-Swim Grant
Opens Sep 1 2026 12:00 AM (MDT)
Deadline Nov 15 2026 11:59 PM (MST)
Description

The USA Swimming Foundation’s mission is to save lives, build champions, and impact communities.  We do this in part by helping to strengthen aquatic programs and provide financial support for children to learn the life-saving gift of swimming.

USA Swimming Foundation Youth Learn-to-Swim Grants are intended to expand current programming in order to reach under-served and under-represented populations and communities that would not otherwise have the opportunity to learn to swim. Grant funds may be used specifically for the purposes of offering free or reduced-cost swim lessons (i.e. scholarships) and/or to cover the cost of transportation to/from the swim lesson site(s) for children 0-17 years of age.*

Prior to submitting your application interested applicants must have an existing, approved Swim Lesson Provider Network within the SurveyMonkey Apply platform. Additionally, interested applicants must meet the program requirements as outlined in the Youth Learn-to-Swim Grant Guidelines.

*USA Swimming Foundation Youth Learn to Swim Grant funds are not intended to provide budget relief, support facility overhead, construction or renovation, aid in the purchase of material goods (including equipment, apparel, etc.), or be used for advertising, promotional, or marketing purposes.
