Scholarship Information

We understand that the cost of ISR lessons can be a concern for many families. We want every child to have the opportunity to learn these vital skills. Rebekah partners with Cast Water Foundation, which provides scholarships to help make this possible.

If you have any questions or need assistance with the application process, please don't hesitate to reach out. We're here to help!

Warm Regards,
The Swim Safe Team


The CAST Foundation helps minimize the cost of lessons for those in need by granting scholarships in varying amounts for up to six weeks of an initial lesson session, and 20 continuation lessons for an additional year.

CAST’s Mission:
To prevent childhood drowning and create safer swimmers, sooner.

Please note: ISR require a $105 registration fee. CAST is able to cover a limited number of registration fees for those with substantial income-based needs. Please indicate this need in the application.

CAST offers scholarships for the following categories:

  • Income Based

    Families in need of financial assistance to make self-rescue swim lessons feasible will qualify based on individual need (subject to verification of income).

  • Military, Teacher, Nurse & First Responder

    If either parent is serving or has served in the military, is currently employed as a teacher or nurse, or works as a first responder, scholarships are available covering approximately 10-25% of the cost of self-rescue swim lessons, depending on instructor and/or location (current employee ID required.)
    Those in need of more financial aid may request additional coverage through an income-based scholarship application.

  • Special Needs

    Families with special needs or a disability (parent or child) that have an interest in self-rescue swim lessons will qualify for scholarships covering approximately 10-25% of the cost of self-rescue swim lessons, depending on instructor and/or location.

    Those in need of more financial aid may request additional coverage through an income-based scholarship application.

  • Other: Should your family have circumstances not covered by the scholarship options above, please reach out to us as CAST is committed to inclusivity.
