We believe it is vital to support veterans and their families through mental health, education, and hope, and that everyone affected by mental illness deserves a chance at a bright future.

We focus on helping veterans affected by mental illness—and, importantly, their families—reclaim their careers, confidence, and hope. We do this by funding scholarships and supporting charities that improve veteran mental health.  

Healing Minds. Building Futures.

Grown-Up Swimming started in Atlanta, GA with a group of teams that wanted to have as much fun swimming as their kids have in summer league. That movement has grown-up (not apologizing for that pun) to provide a low-pressure, high-fun swimming environment for hundreds of people of all ages and abilities. Literally: start swimming for the first time since college or high school, swim competitively for the first time ever, or take a break from your 6,000 yard Masters workouts to have some fun.
