USA Swimming Foundation Swim-A-Thon™
Hosting a Swim-a-Thon™ is a fun and easy way to raise money for your Club or Team and support the USA Swimming Foundation at the same time!
Participants in your Swim-a-Thon™ earn money by swimming lengths of the swimming pool. Swimmers get pledges from family, friends, local businesses and neighbors to support their efforts.
The funds you raise for your club or team are critically important, but there's more to it than that!
The donation that is paid to the USA Swimming Foundation supports its mission to save lives and build champions - in the pool and in life. Whether we're equipping our children with the life-saving skill of learn-to-swim through our Make a Splash initiative, or providing financial support to our heroes on the U.S. National Team, the USA Swimming Foundation aims to provide the wonderful experience of swimming to kids at all levels across the country.
Find out how your team can take advantage of this unique fundraising program and the new, easy-to-use online giving platform created by TeamUnify.
It's that easy!

"Our Swim-a-Thon™ fundraiser revenue increased 357% over last year with no extra effort on our part by utilizing the TeamUnify fundraising platform! This online technology has totally changed our thinking in terms of club management and has opened our minds to new fundraising opportunities within our club. We definitely plan on using the TeamUnify platform for our Swim-a-Thon™ next year!"
- Tim Dubios, Head Coach - Golden Comets Swim Club, NY
"We were excited to tryout the TeamUnify platform this year for our second annual USA Swimming Foundation Swim-A-Thon™ campaign and were very satisfied with the results. The platform is very easy to use for both the swimmers and our administrative team. We increased our revenue by 77% in one year with about the same number of swimmers participating in the event! Two of our favorite features were the ability to email the participants during the course of fundraising to encourage swimmers and parents to raise more money, and the real-time post of what swimmers had raised led to healthy competition amongst our team members. We look forward to next years’ USA Swimming Foundation Swim-a-Thon™ event!”
