For Houston PTAs & PTOs · Spring & Summer 2027

Raise money for your school while more kids learn to swim.

Families are already planning summer swim lessons. Send them through your school and your PTA or PTO gets paid, with nothing to collect, count or invoice. We do the printing, the tracking and the paperwork.

Lessons at the Blue Triangle Community Center, 3005 McGowen St in the Third Ward.

$15 to your PTA for every new swimmer who enrolls with your school's code
$25 kept by your PTA on every lesson certificate you sell, and families get a $50 credit
$0 for your PTA to collect, track or invoice

The offer

Two ways to raise money. Pick one, or run both.

Option 1

$15 back for every new swimmer

Your school gets its own promo code. Every new student who enrolls with it earns your PTA $15.

  • A promo code made just for your school
  • Families who use it get 2 free booster lessons
  • Enrollments are tracked automatically when families sign up online
  • We mail your PTA a check every quarter with a short report of enrollments under your code

Works best in: awards packets, school newsletters, Friday folders and family emails.

Option 2

Sell $25 certificates worth $50

Your PTA sells swim lesson certificates for $25 each. Every one is worth a $50 lesson credit when the family enrolls.

  • Your PTA keeps the full $25 from every sale
  • Families get twice the value toward lessons
  • Co-branded certificates printed for you
  • Great for gifts from grandparents, neighbors and teachers

Works best at: silent auctions, spring carnivals, field day and booth events.

Many schools do both: the code goes home in awards packets and newsletters, and certificates sell at the spring event.

What you get

We do the heavy lifting

Co-branded certificates

Printed with your school name, your PTA or PTO, and your code, ready for end-of-year awards packets.

Flyers, print and digital

Printed flyers for folders, plus a digital version for your newsletter, website and family emails.

Yard signs and banners

For car line, the front fence or your event booth, wherever your campus allows them.

We show up

Our team will come to school events, open houses and carnivals to talk with families.

Water safety talks

A free, age-appropriate water safety presentation for your students.

No bookkeeping for you

No invoicing, no tallying, no chasing payments. We track it, report it and answer families' questions.

Why swim lessons

A fundraiser that does some good on its own

Bake sales and wrapping paper raise money. This one raises money and puts more Houston kids in the water with a trained instructor before summer.

  1. It keeps kids safer

    Drowning is the leading cause of death for children ages 1 to 4 in the U.S., and Houston is full of pools, bayous and beach trips. Lessons are one of the best layers of protection a family can add.

  2. The money's already in the summer budget

    Most families plan some kind of swim time every summer. Your fundraiser just sends that spending back through your school.

  3. It's an easy yes for families

    Free booster lessons or a certificate worth double feels like a perk, not an ask. No one has to buy something they didn't want.

What families see

A take-home card with your school on it

This is the kind of card that goes home in awards packets or Friday folders. We print yours with your school's name and code and deliver it two weeks before you hand them out. A digital copy comes too, for newsletters and email.

  1. Families find a class at British Swim School of Downtown Houston East.
  2. They enter your school's code when they enroll online.
  3. The 2 free booster lessons apply, and your PTA is credited $15.

FAQ

Questions PTAs and PTOs ask us

Does our PTA have to collect money or track sign-ups?

Not for the $15 rebate. Families enroll online with your school's code, we track every enrollment, and we mail your PTA a check with a short report each quarter. For certificates, your PTA sells them at your event and keeps the full $25.

What do families get?

New families who enroll with your code by May 31, 2027 get 2 free booster lessons. A $25 certificate is worth a $50 credit toward lessons.

Can we do both options?

Yes. A lot of schools put the code in awards packets and newsletters and sell certificates at a spring carnival or auction.

When do the printed materials arrive?

Co-branded certificates and cards are delivered two weeks before you hand them out, and you'll get a digital version for newsletters and email right away.

Where do the lessons take place?

At the Blue Triangle Community Center, 3005 McGowen St, Houston, TX 77004. Families pick a day and time that works for them when they enroll.

Can you come talk to our students?

Yes. We offer a free, age-appropriate water safety presentation, and we're happy to staff a table at your school events.

Does it cost the school anything?

No. There's no cost to the school or the PTA, and nothing to buy up front.
