Empowering the Leaders of Tomorrow

Endless Pools donates US$10,000 to the Point Foundation

ASTON, PA - Endless Pools® has donated US$10,000 to The Point Foundation, a non-profit that provides scholarships to promising LGBTQ students. The aquatic fitness innovator announced the gift at an outdoor ceremony at their headquarters in the Philadelphia suburbs.

“We are so grateful to Endless Pools for supporting Point Foundation’s scholarship and leadership development programs for LGBTQ students in higher education," said Jorge Valencia, the Foundation's Executive Director and CEO. "To remedy the fact that LGBTQ Americans are underrepresented as leaders in almost all industries, we must commit to supporting LGBTQ students before they enter the workplace."

The Point Foundation granted scholarships to 115 LGBTQ students for the 2021-2022 academic year. Next year's scholarships will be bolstered by a US$10,000 gift from Endless Pools as part of their Endless Access program supporting diversity and inclusion.

"One of our strengths at Endless Pools is a diverse workforce," observes Darren Pearse, General Manager of Endless Pools. "When we invest in students who face extraordinary obstacles, we support a stronger, more equitable future for us all. We're grateful to the Point Foundation for their empowering contribution to the LGBTQ leaders of tomorrow."

Adds Valencia, "It is gratifying to see businesses like Endless Pools commit to inclusion for the LGBTQ community.”

Through its Endless Access program and backed by their parent company, Masco Corporation, the 33-year-old aquatic fitness innovator proudly contributes to programs that support diversity and promote inclusion.

Per its mission, the Point Foundation offers scholarships to "promising lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer students to achieve their full academic and leadership potential – despite the obstacles often put before them – to make a significant impact on society."

The gift was made at an outdoor event at the Endless Pools headquarters in Aston, Pennsylvania.
