Michael Phelps is passionate about growing the sport of swimming and getting more children in the water. As a child, he learned to swim in a school in North Baltimore, called North Baltimore Swim School. It was there that he learned about water safety and overcame his fear of water. Now, after many accomplishments, both in and out of the water, he is able to invest in the very program that taught him. A program he fully supports and believes in. This swim school gives Michael a direct opportunity to reach his personal goals for the sport while giving back to the community.
