A Great Beam of Light : The Amir Hall Foundation started as a way to provide aquatic support to underprivileged brown and black children after the sudden death of our son Amir. My goal is to increase lifelong water safety and provide FREE swim lessons.  Our desire is to dispel the stereotype that minority communities love water but are unable to swim.  Amir’s compassion and empathy towards others is the premise for “A Great Beam of Light” hoping to light the pathways of other young bright futures.
