Learn More AboutJoining Our Mission


As a 501(c) 3 nonprofit, our goal is education and prevention around UHB. We do this by teaching people—whether that’s swimmers and related organizations directly, our partners like The Michael Phelps Foundation, the US Coast Guard, and more, or coaches and lifeguards who can pass the knowledge along to others.

Your donations help us maintain our website and its huge wealth of information, develop materials like signage, and attend relevant conferences and conventions.

To get you started, we have a variety of materials you can easily incorporate into your presentation, including UHB-related printouts, slide templates, charts, videos, and articles. If you need any additional assistance, we’d love to work with you to tailor the content specifically to your audience.
