Rising Above.
Teaching skills to thrive in
and out of the water.
Swimming is more than a sport. And we are more than a swim team. At the City Swim Project, we are expanding access to swim lessons in diverse neighborhoods around Buffalo. By collaborating with our partners, we provide children, families, and communities the skills to rise above. Above fear of the water. Above cultural and economic barriers. Above the cycle of inequality. Even above the competition. Join us in empowering lives through swimming.
