Volunteers are the backbone of FMF. There are many ways to help save a life:
🙋🏻♀️
Trainers
Trainers are volunteers who can swim and may have some experience teaching. Trainers must be 18 or older. We are looking for both male and female swimmers. Trainers work with members of the same gender.

Saviors
Saviors know how to swim but prefer not to teach. Several Saviors work alongside Trainers to ensure a safe water experience for all participants. Saviors must be at least 14 years of age and have working papers.

Handy Helpers
Handy Helpers assist FMF by recruiting trainers, researching local swimming pools, fundraising, and other organizational tasks. Must be 14 or older with proper working papers.
FMF also welcomes students who wish to complete community service hours with our organization.
Fajr Memorial Foundation believes everyone has the right to learn to swim. We strive to break racial, religious, and financial barriers. If you are struggling to afford a Learn to Swim program and feel you may be eligible for a scholarship, please apply through our website.
Civic-minded companies and dedicated individuals who donate time, money, products, and services allow us to continue our important work. If you or someone you know would like to make a difference by becoming a sponsor or making a one-time donation, please contact us.
