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 Safety Foundation and Down to Defend 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
