(Chicago) October 22, 2015 – British Swim School (BSS) is proud to announce its new 10 and 10 program. This arrangement allows participating schools to earn $10 for every child that enrolls in swimming lessons with BSS. As a further incentive, BSS is giving parents a 10 percent discount on those lessons.
“We are excited to be able to offer this program to local schools,” says Angelica Monroy, executive director of British Swim School. “Our community has done so much to support us and this is one way we can give back. The program will allow so many other families to benefit while learning the life-saving skill of swimming.”
The National Institute of Health reports an 88 percent reduction in drowning incidents for children that participate in formal swim lessons. They believe that everyone – from as young as 3 months old – needs to know how to swim and survive in the water. Their distinctive lessons, developed over the last 34 years, are tailored to the skill level and learning abilities of each student in a fun and positive environment.
The 10 and 10 program is available for the entire school year to give parents flexibility with their schedules and to maximize potential funding for the schools. For more information, please call (708-613-5179) for downtown Chicago, Skokie, Evanston and Oak Park or (630-833-8145) for Gurnee, Schaumburg, Hoffman Estates, Oak Brook, Oak Lawn, Addison and more. Please mention the 10 and 10 program when calling.
