SWIM 4 BRAXTON
SWIM 4 BRAXTON, A 501(C)(3) NON-PROFIT FOUNDATION, WAS INCORPORATED ON DECEMBER 8, 2022, AFTER THE TRAGIC DROWNING OF 4 YEAR OLD BRAXTON ACKERMAN. OUR HOPE IS THAT THROUGH SPREADING AWARENESS AND BEING ABLE TO FINANCIALLY HELP WHEN NEEDED, WE CAN PREVENT SIMILAR EVENTS FROM HAPPENING. AT SWIM 4 BRAXTON, WE STRONGLY BELIEVE AND RECOMMEND THAT EVERY HOME WITH A POOL NEEDS TO HAVE A CHILD BARRIER (EVEN IF YOU DONT HAVE CHILDREN YOURSELF ), ALONG WITH PROPER SUPERVISION AT ALL TIMES. WE ALSO PROMOTE SWIMMING LESSONS AND CPR.
SURPRISINGLY, 58% OF PARENTS REPORT THAT THEY DONT CONSIDER DROWNING A RISK TO THEIR CHILDREN, YET STATISTICS SHOW THAT A SWIMMING POOL IS 14 TIMES MORE LIKELY TO BE INVOLVED IN THE DEATH OF A CHILD, AGED 1 4 YEARS OLD, THAN A MOTOR VEHICLE. IN FACT, WHILE MOST PARENTS WORRY ABOUT THINGS LIKE A HOT STOVE, IRON, SHARP OBJECTS, A FALL FROM TALL SURFACES, PERHAPS ANIMALS, OR EVEN A LOADED GUN IN THE HOUSE, THE MOST DANGEROUS THING IS SOMETHING THAT IS ALWAYS AROUND US IN SOME WAY: WATER. AND THE WORST PART IS THAT WE DONT TEND TO THINK MUCH ABOUT THIS. BUT WHETHER IT BE THE TOILET, SINK, POOL, BATHTUB, A PUDDLE OUTSIDE, A POT OR PAN, THERE IS A CONSTANT NEED TO PROTECT YOUR CHILD FROM BECOMING A VICTIM.
