2010-2011 NSPF® Grant Guidelines

In order to be considered for a grant from the National Swimming Pool Foundation, the applicant must be a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. The purpose of grants is for research and academic studies related to swimming pool and spa injury and illness prevention and aquatic health benefits.

Grant applications in excess of $25,000 will not be considered. Grant applications will be given priority based on 1) merit/impact and 2) cost. Applications at the lowest cost will be evaluated first. Requests for building, equipment, educational, and/or other programs cannot be considered.

Non-profit organizations interested in submitting a grant request to the National Swimming Pool Foundation should carefully review NSPF® Grant Guidelines. There is no official grant request application form. However, grant requests will not be considered without complete documentation as outlined in the NSPF® Grant Guidelines.
