Welcome to the 2025 Swim-A-Thon Fundraiser!

Background: The swim-a- thon is the annual fundraiser for the Friends of PPSC (the booster club that supports the Porpoises). Each year the team holds a swim-a-thon where swimmers are challenged to swim an age/level appropriate numbers of laps to show their support for the team.  We ask them to collect sponsorships from friends and family. 

Funds raised by the event are used for "team fun", scholarship for swimmers in financial need and facility investments (like painting the pool and the installation of the two starting blocks this past year).  We'd love to be able to install a water bottle filler and get some benches for the locker rooms this year....and eventually have two more blocks.  

Our Goal:  

Raise $10,000 

Have 100% participation from swim team members

Swimmers collect a minimum 5 donors 

Date of Swim-A-Thon: Sunday, November 2nd  click here FMI

Swimmers will receive thank you gifts in recognition for their efforts. 

How to Collect Donations:

Donation can be made via check written out to the Friends of Portland Porpoises, cash or using Venmo to the Friendsof PPSC.  The QR code can be found below. 

How to Record Donations

Swimmers will use this collection sheet to record their donations (it can be one per family if donations will be split evenly between swimmers). Feel free to submit more than one form if you want to submit in batches each week, etc.  We will update our progress on the thermometer at the pool and online as we receive donations.
