USA ARTISTIC SWIMMING - PLANNED GIVING

---

A long-time goal of mine has been for USA Artistic Swimming to be self-supporting and not having to rely on any outside funding source.  That goal still drives my efforts today.  I want the NGB to be able to support programs at all levels from Recreational/Novice to Collegiate to Elite to Masters.  We have a lifelong activity in which any person is able to enter at any age and at any skill level.  What better way to be healthy and challenged throughout a lifetime?  So, I put Artistic Swimming in my will with the goal of being able to support myself through retirement and ultimately benefit a whole world of fun, active people.

The United States Artistic Swimming Foundation has impressed me with its support of all levels of competitions. I knew that I wanted to continue my support of this organization both now and in the future; as a result, I have the United States Artistic Swimming Foundation as a beneficiary in my Charitable Remainder Trust.

While other sports teach individual excellence and/or teamwork, Artistic Swimming teaches both – plus many other seemingly disparate skills that are valuable in life. It matches individual excellence with the ability to exactly match others, the value of attention to the whole coupled with attention to detail, creative thinking coupled with analytical thinking – all of this in the context of hard work and perseverance. In supporting the USA Artistic Swimming Foundation, I am supporting the continuance of a sport that teaches amazing life skills, and that was also an important part of my life.
