🐥 About Stewie the Duck Swim School
In 1989, Kim and Stew Leonard, Jr. lost their 21-month-old son, Stewie, in a tragic drowning accident. From that loss came a lifelong mission to prevent drowning through education, awareness, and access to swim lessons.
Stewie the Duck Swim School brings that mission to life. Our first location opened in Norwalk, CT in 2023 and now serves over 1,300 children weekly. Our second location recently opened in Clifton, NJ, next to Stew Leonard’s farm-fresh food store.
💙 Our mission is simple:
Save a life, one swim lesson at a time.
Save a life, one swim lesson at a time.
All proceeds support swim lessons for underserved children.
