Dive In for Education — 11th Annual Charity Ocean Swim Supporting St. Innocent Orphanage

Join Father Simeon and the Swim for Hope Team to Help Fund Education for Orphaned Children in Mexico

Every year, Father Simeon—affectionately known as “Aqua Padre”—and the dedicated Swim for Hope team swim, kayak, or paddle across open waters to raise critical funds for Project Mexico’s School Buddies Education Program, directly benefiting the children of St. Innocent Orphanage.

This year's challenge includes a 9-mile ocean swim from South Coronado Island to the scenic shores of San Antonio Del Mar in Baja California, Mexico. After the swim, everyone is invited to a community beach barbecue near Baja Malibu to celebrate the journey and the impact of your support.

WHERE: San Antonio Del Mar, Baja Mexico

WHEN: Saturday, September 6, 2025.
