Child Safety Source

Our interview with Alissa Magrum, Executive Director of the non-profit organization Colin's Hope!Have the best day ever! That was the motto of Colin Holst. the inspiration of Colin's Hope, and is now the mantra of Colin's Hope's vibrant Executive Director: Alissa Magrum. Colin’s Hope was formed in 2008 after 4 year old Colin Holst tragically drowned in a public pool, with lifeguards on duty and family members present. Our mission is to raise water safety awareness to prevent children from drowning. Drowning is the number 1 cause of accidental death for children under 5 and a leading cause for ages 1-14. While no-one is drown-proof, drowning IS preventable.
