SWIM 1922: Saving Lives Through Swim Lessons
from Jacksonville News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Drowning doesn’t discriminate—but the data does: Black individuals under thirty drown at alarmingly higher rates than their White peers. That’s why Gamma Omicron Sigma of Sigma Gamma Rho teamed up with the Shawn D. Delifus Foundation at the Johnson Family YMCA to launch SWIM 1922—a bold, community-driven push to teach lifesaving swim skills where access is scarce. Through free summer lessons, water safety kits, snack bags, and a $1,024 donation to expand aquatic education, this initiative is turning tragedy into triumph—one splash at a time. It’s not just about swimming—it’s about saving lives, building confidence, and closing the gap in safety equity. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
