The Fond du Lac Family YMCA has partnered with Make a Splash, a national child-focused water safety initiative created by the USA Swimming Foundation. Launched in 2007, Make a Splash works by aligning the nation’s top learn-to-swim resources in an effort to save lives. Make a Splash educates parents through a national awareness campaign, saves lives by joining forces with grassroots learn-to-swim programs and reaches thousands of children through wide-reaching in-school materials.

By partnering with the USA Swimming Foundation in activating the Make a Splash initiative, the Y will be able to deliver programs designed to:
• Reduce drowning
• Increase participation of underrepresented populations in the sport of swimming
• Expand the use of swimming as a means to lifetime health and fitness
