3. Announcing the launching of our new I CAN SWIM program. In Canada, immigrants are less likely to learn to swim or to participate recreationally. Most Canadian newcomers come from Asia, Africa and the Caribbean. With the stereotype that makes most assume that coming from the Caribbean surrounded by water, we must all be fish or expert swimmers. That is not the reality. With your support, we aim to fund swimming lessons for ten children and their parents- A life skill that all should have. Parents who can't swim cannot save their children, for that reason parents are included.
