AGUA Endurance Fund
We are so grateful to the families that have contributed to the AGUA Endurance Fund. These gifts now total over $110,000 and have us well on the way to our goal of $250,000. Funds raised will be used to support the totality of our program. If you are able, we are hopeful for your support. Every dollar counts.

Over the next 12 to 18 months, we anticipate budget gaps that could impede our standards of coaching, facility upkeep, and overall team experience. The AGUA Endurance Fund will help cover the operational and capital needs that will keep our athletes safe and flourishing in the pool. 

Once again, thank you to all of our families for your continued and unwavering support of our program.
