The FSPA's Florida Swims Foundation (previously the Swimming Pool Education and Safety Foundation) funds swimming lessons and scholarships for dependents of member companies.

$35,000 in scholarships awarded to college students for 2018-19 school year
$27,095 in grants awarded for swimming lessons in partnership with FSPA Chapters in 2017
FSPA chapters collaborate with local organizations, such as Safe Kids, Boys & Girls Clubs and YMCAs, to bring important water safety messages and swimming lessons directly to families with young children.

Florida Swims joins forces with PHTF and ISHOF

A joint partnership kicked off in October with a formal signing ceremony on Friday, October 8. As part of the agreement, the Florida Swimming Pool Association became a founding member of the partnership established by PHTA’s Step Into Swim and ISHOF’s Every Child A Swimmer programs. The collaboration will triple the impact of FSPA's efforts. Money sent to the Florida Swims Foundation earmarked for Every Child A Swimmer will be matched twice and then put back into the local community from which it originated.
