ISR LESSON SCHOLARSHIPS
CAST values inclusive practices and believes that every child is entitled to self-rescue skills. Our team works hard to ensure access to families with a serious interest in swim and self-rescue lessons.
Participating families must be enrolled to swim with a CAST Scholarship Partner Instructor. CAST offers scholarships for the following categories:
Income-Based: Families in need of financial assistance to make self-rescue swim lessons feasible will qualify based on individual needs (subject to verification of income). Many programs require a separate registration fee for self-rescue lessons. CAST can cover 25% of registration fees for those with substantial income-based needs. Ask your local CAST Partner Instructor about scholarship opportunities in your community.
Military, Teacher, Nurse & First Responder: If either parent is serving or has served in the military, is currently employed as a teacher or nurse, or works as a first responder, scholarships are available covering 25% of the cost of self-rescue swim lessons, depending on instructor and/or location (current employee ID required). Those in need of more financial aid may request additional coverage through an income-based scholarship application.
Special Needs: Families with special needs or a disability (parent or child) that have an interest in self-rescue swim lessons will qualify for scholarships covering 25% of self-rescue swim lessons, depending on instructor and/or location. Those in need of more financial assistance can apply for additional coverage.
Other: Should your family have circumstances not covered by the scholarship options above, please reach out to us as CAST is committed to inclusivity.
