ABOUT SPLASH FOUNDATION
We believe everyone should have an opportunity to learn to swim. We are a Hong Kong based charitable organisation that teaches people from under-resourced communities how to swim. By connecting those who can swim with those who want to learn, we offer an opportunity that empowers people and delivers results.

It costs just HKD 2,000 (US$250) to teach someone how to swim and be water confident. If you would like to support our work, you can donate here: https://www.splashfoundation.org/en/d...

SAFETY GUIDELINES FOR BEGINNERS
Swimming, like all athletic activities, is physically challenging and involves risks to participants that cannot be entirely eliminated. Please use these resources at your own risk and always follow these guidelines when learning to swim.
👉 Practise with a coach or experienced swimmer
👉 Practise in shallow, calm water
👉 Dress appropriately - water resistant swimwear and goggles
👉 When in doubt, get out. Only swim when feeling comfortable
