Para Swimmers At The ESPYs

Paralympian Jamal Hill is always hard at work trying to make the world a better place, whether it’s through his work as an ambassador to the United Nations, his Swim Up Hill Foundation or simply spreading messages of inspiration and positivity on social media.

His work hasn’t gone unnoticed, either. Hill was nominated for the Muhammad Ali Humanitarian Award at this year’s ESPYs, and although he didn’t win, he was grateful for the recognition.

Hill posted to Instagram, recognizing winners Jrue and Lauren Holiday, as well as fellow nominee Brad Stuver, and thanked his and his foundation’s supporters.

“Thank you to our international @swimuphilldotorg family for trusting me, our network of partners, instructors and volunteers to bring lifesaving swim education to the most obscure parts of the world and to the communities who need it most,” he wrote. “Thank you @espncitizenship for helping to tell the story of our work through the Swim Up Hill Foundation to audiences nationwide.

“Finally thank you all of my personal family and friends that really made this nomination feel so special. Your love and excitement were more award than I could’ve asked for.”
