For over 30 years, Ocaquatics has provided lifesaving skills to the South Florida community to make families safer around the water. Through the phenomenal team at Ocaquatics, guided under a framework of environmental and social responsibility, the swim school has grown in a sustainable way and has been able to make a bigger impact in the world. This work has led to the creation of the non-profit, Ripples of Impact Nonprofit Ripples of Impact (ROI) is an extension of the mission at Ocaquatics -- To make children and families in underserved communities safer around the water by providing scholarships and tuition assistance for high quality swimming lessons. In addition, educating the public about environmental and social responsibility, resilience and ownership. To lead on the environmental resilience effort, The Resilience Pod has been added as an education asset. The Pod is a 40-foot shipping container that has been retrofitted as an interactive learning space and post disaster touch point for resources. It has been a part of the community since 2020, moving around Miami Dade County providing information on climate change, environmental resilience and sustainability. The pod will now be living at the Ocaquatics Eureka location between visits to community events. Look out for it the next time you are there and stop back here for the latest ROI updates. 🐬 #Ocaquatics #RipplesOfImpact #SwimLessons #Swimming #NonProfit
