Simone Manuel @swimone shares how organizations like Diversity In Aquatics and her own foundation are creating access, saving lives, and opening doors through swim education with @stephelamtv and her foundation @simonemanuelfoundation #IWSD2025
How did it all begin for Olympic Gold Medal Champion Simone Manuel @swimone ? With swim lessons to cool off in the Texas heat. Water safety saves lives and sometimes sparks greatness. Watch for clips from her conversation with DIA’s Stephanie Elam @stephelamtv throughout the month.

A valuable lesson for younger @swimone was to have the confidence and belief in herself to pursue her goals and dreams. She learned to carve her own path. Through her foundation, Simone hopes to inspire the next generation to do the same.
In honor of Black History Month, we’re working with our besties @simonemanuelfoundation and @gofundme to impact the next generation of Black swimmers through education, resources, and awareness 🏊🏾♀️

Nothing gets in the way of @swimone 🏊♀️
Before she added to her Olympic medal collection in Paris, Simone showed us how she keeps her Head Above Water while shouldering the weight of an entire community. Watch one of our favorite stories at the 🔗 in bio as we honor Simone during Black History Month 🖤

The Simone Manuel Foundation, Spurs Give, Arena, Nike, and Athletes for Impact joined forces for an unforgettable 2-day event in San Antonio and it was nothing short of amazing! Day 1 had us on the edge of our seats at the TYR Pro Swim Series, cheering on Simone’s stellar performance in the 50 Free Finals! 🏊🏾♀️ Day 2 delved deep into an important conversation on Diversity in Sports, led by none other than Simone and Dr. Kara Allen of Spurs Give. Representation matters, and together, we’re paving the way for a more inclusive future in swimming. 🙌🏾

Join us in honoring the incredible legacy of Black Swimmers who have made waves in history. The victories of these athletes resonate far beyond the pool. With only 1.5% of the almost 400,000 athletes registered with USA Swimming being Black, their wins become a beacon of hope for future generations.
They’ve broken barriers, inspired dreams, and proven that excellence knows no bounds. Their achievements inspire Us to dive deeper, dream bigger, and break barriers. Together with @simonemanuelfoundation and @athletes4impact , we amplify their stories, celebrate their triumphs, and champion diversity and excellence in the pool and beyond.

The Simone Manuel Foundation was created to help BIPOC children better navigate the swim space. I am a firm believer that if you can see it, you can be it. We are committed to creating equal spaces in swimming to ensure that every young swimmer feels seen, heard, and supported.
As the first African American Woman to win an Individual Olympic Gold Medal in swimming, it is an honor to serve as an inspiration and continue to pave the way for diversity in the sport.
