Swimming With A Mission (SWAM)

Swimming With a Mission Toronto is a not-for-profit student initiative founded as a registered chapter of Swimability Canada in 2011. The program’s mission is to provide affordable and accessible one-on-one swimming instruction to children with special needs. There are 2 seasons each year, with 8 sessions each held at Beverley School Pool. University of Toronto engineering students have also been actively engaged in a project with the program to help improve the program, and with an expanding volunteer base now encompassing undergraduate students, nursing students, and PT/OT students, SWAM continues to move towards expanding its reach and strengthening its impact in the community.
