The current public health crisis has had a significant impact on all of us.  USMS Clubs are no different.

To help address this crisis, U.S. Masters Swimming has developed a framework to provide clubs with grant money to help resume operations as quickly as appropriate in their area. USMS will match LMSC funding used to support qualifed clubs.  

The USMS Swimming Saves Lives Foundation is ready to help.  All proceeds received from the SSLF’s second Annual on-line auction will be donated to the USMS COVID-19 Relief Program. 

The auction will take place Aug. 8-31, coinciding with the Toyota USMS Virtual Championships Powered by Swim.com.  You can bid on fun items for all swim fans, including autographed caps (including two signed by Michael Phelps), bags, artwork from fellow Masters Swimmers and swag from USMS partners.

If there’s nothing particular on your swim wish list but you still want to contribute, we’ve got you covered. You can use the donation button below to provide funds to support this program.

Thank you for giving back to swimming -- the only sport that can save a life.
