On #GivingTuesday, charitable fundraiser Swim With Purpose (SWP) is thanking its existing corporate sponsors Sharp/NEC, Exertis Almo, and Absen.

In its quest to raise $1M to restore and renovate the indoor pool facility at Kentucky State University (KSU), SWP is matching all new donations up to $100K from November 28 – December 31, 2023. All donations will be applied to the goal of raising $1M and bringing the Frankfort community closer to opening the new William Exum Center for the students, faculty, and staff of KSU; the community and YMCA members in the local area.

“To date, we have achieved approximately 25% of our goal towards the re-establishment of the indoor pool facility KSU for the Frankfort community to utilize for a healthy lifestyle and therapy,” said chairman and co-founder of Swim With Purpose, Sam Taylor. “We are grateful for our corporate sponsors, Sharp/NEC, Exertis Almo, and Absen. Because of their generosity, we are moving the dial and getting closer to our $1M funding target. Thanks to this existing support and in conjunction with Giving Tuesday, we are proud to match 100% of all donations from now through the end of the year.”

“Giving back has always been an important part of Almo’s corporate culture,” added Warren Chaiken, president and CEO of Almo Corp. “Sam Taylor is not only doing this currently through his mission at Swim With Purpose, but he also has done so throughout his career in the AV industry. We look forward to seeing the restored KSU aquatic center and know that it will definitely have a positive impact on the Frankfort community.”
