VIRGINIA BEACH, Va.&nbsp;— <a href="https://poolscoutsfranchise.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=pool-scouts-hope-floats-fundraising-2729261" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Pool Scouts</a>, the leading national pool service franchise, is ramping up its commitment to water safety in 2025 by expanding its partnership with <a href="https://www.hopefloats.foundation/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=pool-scouts-hope-floats-fundraising-2729261" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Hope Floats Foundation</a>. This year, all <a href="https://1851franchise.com/poolscouts/info">Pool Scouts</a> franchise locations will participate in the fundraising campaign, reinforcing the brand’s dedication to drowning prevention and swim lesson accessibility for children in need.&nbsp;Since 2021, Pool Scouts has raised $82,000 for Hope Floats, and this year, the brand is setting a $20,000 fundraising goal to push total donations over the $100,000 mark. Helping to drive the effort is a partnership with Step Into Swim, the drowning prevention initiative of the <a href="https://www.phta.org/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=pool-scouts-hope-floats-fundraising-2729261" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Pool &amp; Hot Tub Alliance</a>. Step Into Swim will match donations up to $20,000, allowing Hope Floats to provide swim lesson scholarships for hundreds of children in need. This concerted effort from Pool Scouts locations is especially impactful during <a href="https://www.nationaldaycalendar.com/may/national-water-safety-month-may?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=pool-scouts-hope-floats-fundraising-2729261" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">National Water Safety Month</a> in May, when children and families are preparing to enjoy pools, beaches, and waterparks.&nbsp;“At Pool Scouts, we take water safety seriously, and we’re incredibly proud to see our entire system come together for this initiative,” said <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/dmele/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=pool-scouts-hope-floats-fundraising-2729261" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Dave Mele</a>, president of Pool Scouts. “By reaching our $20,000 goal this year, we will have contributed over $100,000 to Hope Floats, ensuring even more children gain access to life-saving swim lessons.”Mele emphasizes the local impact of Pool Scouts' fundraising efforts, highlighting the franchise’s commitment to community involvement. “One of the best parts of this campaign is knowing that the funds raised by each franchise will support children in their own local communities,” he said. “Every dollar we contribute helps provide kids with the skills they need to be safe around water, and that’s something we take great pride in as a brand.”&nbsp;“Step Into Swim is incredibly proud to partner with Pool Scouts and the Hope Floats Foundation during National Water Safety Month, ,” said Olympic Gold Medalist Rowdy Gaines, PHTA Vice President of Partnerships &amp; Development, who leads Step Into Swim. “Hope Floats and Step Into Swim share the same goal: to end the childhood drowning epidemic through increased access to swim lessons. Having industry support from PHTA members like Pool Scouts makes fulfilling our mission that much easier. Every dollar raised leads to more children learning to swim, more families feeling confident in and around water, and more lives potentially saved.”.&nbsp;Drowning remains the leading cause of accidental death among children, according to the CDC, but formal swim lessons can reduce the risk by 88%. Pool Scouts’ contributions help fund these vital lessons, directly benefiting families in the communities the franchise serves.&nbsp;National Water Safety Month serves as a crucial reminder of the importance of water safety education, especially as families prepare for summer activities. Pool Scouts continues to uphold its mission of providing high-quality pool services while actively giving back to the communities it serves.Those interested in donating to the Pool Scouts/Hope Floats campaign for National Water Safety Month can do so here: <a href="https://givebutter.com/poolscouts2025?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=pool-scouts-hope-floats-fundraising-2729261" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://givebutter.com/poolscouts2025</a>.&nbsp;To learn more about franchise opportunities with Pool Scouts, visit:<a href="https://1851franchise.com/poolscouts">&nbsp;https://1851franchise.com/poolscouts</a>.&nbsp;ABOUT POOL SCOUTS:Virginia Beach, VA-based Pool Scouts is a premier pool service franchise focused on delivering a quality, consistent brand experience while providing pool cleaning, maintenance and minor repair services at residential properties.
