Overview

Mission

A fun, family and community based swim program.

What it reported doing in 2024

Swimarin offers swimming lessons and competitions. The Shark Pups program is a series of swim lessons designed for kids who are comfortable in the water but not yet ready for the swim team. These lessons guide the children through the first stages of water safety, stroke development, and independent swimming. Lessons are May- August for children 4 years and older. The Organization also offers a community competitive swim team for ages 5-18 with daily practice February-June.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 85% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% 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

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
