Colins Hope
Drowning is Fast, Silent and Preventable.
Colin's Hope was formed in 2008 after 4 year old Colin Holst drowned in a community pool surrounded by family, friends, and lifeguards on duty. Drowning remains the NUMBER 1 cause of death for children under 5 and a leading cause for older children, teens and adults. Yet, Drowning is preventable.
The Colin's Hope mission is to provide water safety and educational programs and resources to parents, caregivers and children to prevent drowning.
Colin's Hope is a trusted water safety and drowning prevention organization
