"Anyone can drown, no one should"

Our Objective

To educate as many people as possible on the importance of water safety awareness and to respect water in any form, from dams, lakes, rivers to pools and shallow waters. To promote water safety to local and international communities.

How we make a difference

We plan to make a difference to our community through the distribution of water safety posters, animated videos and clinics. All of the above will be available in our primary local languages - English; Shona and Ndebele.

Our Goals

WSTZ aims to educate people across the nation that water is fun and many of our wonderful recreational sports are water based such as fishing/skiing/boating etc; However there should always be respect for water, as a powerful substance. We also aim to overcome the perceptions and myths, locally and culturally throughout Africa, that create fear for water. Myths such as mermaids will take people away in the dam/river, and many other beliefs that inhibit people from learning how to swim/ interact with water safely.

We are hoping to co-partner with businesses who are like-minded towards community and take up the social and corporate responsibility of protecting the community. We know that drowning is preventable if people are given the tools to make safe decisions when entering water.
