The Durham Chapter of Jack and Jill is excited to partner with Carolina Swims Foundation to provide free swim lessons and swim equipment for children in the foster care system in North Carolina. The Durham Chapter was selected as a 2020 recipient of the Red Cross NADPA Swim Sponsorship in the amount of $2000.  This grant is being used to provide greater water safety awareness, swim instruction, and swimming gear.  Each child will be provided a ‘survival pack’ which includes items such as bathing suits, goggles, towels, swim caps, swim toys, and water bottles.

Jack and Jill of America, Incorporated was founded in 1938, dedicated to nurturing the next generation of African-American leaders. The organization continues to encourage dedicating its resources to improving the quality of life for all African-American children. The Durham Chapter of Jack and Jill celebrated its 75th Anniversary in October, and continues to serve communities in Durham, Orange, Chatham and Granville Counties.  

"In the absence of North Carolina swimming laws requiring lifeguard standards for all kids, Carolina Swims is setting new standards when it comes to guarding against the waste and terror of drowning.  Carolina Swims is reducing the risk of drowning by increasing the number of qualified guards around the water.  If you know a child—any child—then you have a reason for being invested in Carolina Swims," stated Dr. Jeffrey Brown.
