Grants
BH-JSL is currently soliciting grants on a rolling basis from organizations that further the mission of the BH-JSL. Primarily these grants will be given to groups that hold learn-to-swim programs for “at-risk” youth. School programs, After-school programs, church groups, and others are invited to apply. Other proposals may be considered if they further the mission of the foundation.

Criteria of success for Learn-to-Swim programs
- Competitive pricing per swimmer trained
- Alternative or creative methods of funding (i.e. other grants, volunteer instructors)
- To be considered “WATER SAFE,” all participants in learn-to-swim classes must be able to safely and independently swim 25 yards on their front and back and complete the skills equivalent to the American Red Cross Level 3 (certain skills, such as head-first entry may be omitted)
