Making Waves Canada GoFundMe Campaign
Making Waves Canada is raising money to sustain and expand our program.
Making Waves Canada is the national organization of 13 (and counting) Chapters throughout Canada. Each chapter runs an affordable and accessible swimming program to children with special needs. Since 2005, we have helped over 2,000 children with disabilities learn to swim. All members of the organization are volunteers. I am currently involved with Making Waves Canada as a director on the board.
I got involved with Making Waves Montreal (a chapter of Making Waves Canada) in my first year at McGill, and taught the same child, Marie, my entire four years. It was by far the most valuable experience of my undergraduate career. Many of you know that I was able to work in Lebanon as an International Making Waves Ambassador because of my connection to Making Waves Montreal.
Parents with a disabled child have numerous additional expenses, and ensuring their child has one-on-one swimming instruction should not be a financial burden. Your support would go directly towards ensuring the current fee of approximately $5-10 per lesson stays the same. Essentially, you’re donations are ensuring our organization can continue to operate as an assessable and affordable program, and expand to new towns and cities throughout Canada.
