Working towards the goal of saving lives and empowering kids with an amazing team is also a great Christmas wish come true.

Did you know CAST partners donate a portion of their time to help us reach more kids?

Drowning remains the leading cause of death for children 1-4. Together with our partners we will always keep striving for more access, more awareness and more kids floating! If Santa can help, of course we’ll take it!

We are honored to share this news which we hope will empower families, communities and pediatricians with information that can save lives.

We want to thank researchers Dr. David Schwebel and Anna Johnston of the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) Youth Safety Lab and Injury Prevention.

We are grateful The Hughes Family Nicole Salvaggio Hughes and countless other families who have been courageously working to advocate, raise awareness, create access to high quality swim lessons and save lives.

We could not have done this without our swim families, instructor partner team, gracious event hosts, donors and supporters. Thank you!

This was a tremendous team effort. The abundance of guidance, support, and positive energy have made this process not only possible but so meaningful.

Please share with your networks, families with children and the medical and pediatric communities.

Together we will save lives!

We do let go, and they do go under water. They learn that they want and need the air above the surface by experiencing the lack-there-of below the surface. Why? Because drowning is the leading cause of death for kids 1-4. Self-rescue skills are an added layer of protection that the child can take with them wherever they go.
