A Child's Laughter Should Never End in Silence

In the Philippines, drowning silently claims hundreds of young lives every year, especially during typhoons and floods.

Who We Are

Drown Free Philippines Foundation, Inc. is a non-profit organization committed to preventing drowning by educating children, youth, and adults empowering families and communities with life-saving knowledge and creating opportunities that protect those living in high-risk and underserved areas.

Our Vision

We envision a safer, stronger, and more empowered Philippines where every Filipino, regardless of background, has access to life-saving skills, opportunities in swimming, and a path to a better future in a Drown-Free Philippines.

Why Your Support Matters

Every day, Filipino families in coastal areas, riverside homes, canals, and flood-prone barangays live with risks that many people never see.


Most of them cannot afford swim lessons, safety training, or survival education — and that’s why this foundation exists
