Did you know that May is Water Safety Month? Water safety is a cause that is very near and dear to our hearts here at Pool Scouts. Not only are we focused on cleaning and maintaining pools, but we always want to provide a safe environment for you and your family. That’s why it’s so essential to spread awareness about the importance of learning how to swim! National Water Safety Month was originally created by the Association of Pool & Spa Professionals to raise awareness about water safety and to help everyone have safe, fun experiences in and around the water.
According to the CDC, drowning is the leading cause of accidental death for children ages four and under. In hopes of reducing the number of drowning deaths and eliminating this statistic, Pool Scouts franchisees have partnered with Hope Floats Foundation to raise money for swim lessons for underprivileged children who may not have otherwise had the opportunity to learn how to swim.
Since we began our partnership in 2021, we’ve collectively raised over $82,000, and this year, we’re setting our sights on breaking the $100,000 mark. Pool Scouts is proud to continue supporting Hope Floats with a fundraising campaign this May.
