safety is #1
Sadly, drowning is the leading cause of death among children ages 1-4 and is a top concern for families.
At Big Blue, water safety is a top priority—which is why we’re committed to sharing helpful resources with as many families as possible. We’re looking to partner with others in our communities who work closely with kids and families, because raising awareness takes all of us.
Our Water Safety Advocate Program is for trusted community members like pediatricians, coaches, and PTA leaders who support families and want to share important water safety tools. Not you? No problem. Caregiver resources are also linked below for simple, effective use at home.
For Community Partners
We offer free water safety resources—like checklists, Water Watcher cards, and more—for partners to distribute to families. Our team can also give in-person presentations or host your group at a local Big Blue. As a partner, your group or business may be featured on our blog and social media. This program is open to any community member who shares our commitment to water safety.
