Overview

Mission

To promote a lifelong love of swimming for all ages and abilities via a community-based and community-supported comprehensive training program.

What it reported doing in 2025

So how did we do against our 2025 swim lesson goals? We nailed it for our first year and plan to go even bigger in 2026! W plan on hosting at least 2 summer sessions as well as continuing our spring and fall school sessions.in the spring semester of 2025, we held five swimming lessons on february 25, march 4, march 11, march 25, april 8. In those sessions we had eight kids. They represented the santo domingo, taos, san felipe, jemez, acoma, picuris, and ohkay owingeh pueblos.out fall 2025 swimming lesson program covered six weeks on tuesday nights. October 7, october 14, october 21, october 28, november 4, november 11. This session included nine students representing the zuni, taos, jemez, navajo and santo domingo pueblos.on top of our swim lesson program in partnership with the santa fe indian school, we also started our scholarship program fro underprivileged athletes on our team. In 2025 we handed out #5,213 in scholarship funding. And the large mafority of those funds are to minority families living in santa fe. Quite a first year and a solid foundation to make 2026 even bigger and better for our fellow new mexican children.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 97% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
