“Be More Darcey”

Darcey Elizabeth Sunshine Doig was exactly what her name suggested: a beam of pure, radiant light. She was brave, vibrant, and possessed a zest for life that was contagious to everyone she met.

To “Be More Darcey” means more than just a slogan to us. It is a philosophy for how we run this foundation:

  • Live Bravely: We tackle the global drowning crisis head-on, even when the statistics seem overwhelming.
  • Spread Sunshine: We approach every lesson and every community with the joy and warmth Darcey gave the world.
  • Love the Water: Darcey loved to swim. We want every child to have that same joy, but with the survival skills necessary to keep them safe.
