How We Create Change
Community Support
The BlueFit initiative, Get Fit Give Back program exemplifies our commitment to supporting local communities, sports clubs, and charities. By participating, individuals not only enhance their personal health but also contribute to the well-being of their community.
Water Safety and Learn to Swim
Safety is at the core of everything we do. Learning how to act safely around water and learning to swim is a life necessity not a privilege. The BlueFit Foundation is committed to supporting children and adults who require assistance.
Dragonfly Program
The BlueFit Foundation supports the Dragonfly Program, an initiative by BlueFit Swimming designed to provide tailored swimming lessons for individuals with disabilities.
Community Engagement
The BlueFit Group is dedicated to inspiring community activity. Our Foundation Fun Days and Community Events offer excellent opportunities to get involved and contribute.
