Basking in the glory of her 2024 Olympic and World achievements, Smith took pride in another accomplishment, having helped 113 children with ‘learn to swim’ scholarships through her eponymous ‘Regan Smith Foss Scholarship’ in partnership with Step Into Swim and Every Child a Swimmer. She expressed that the intentions of the scholarships cater to her passion for water safety.
She added:
Regan Smith’s parents had sporting backgrounds and even her sister started swimming when young. Inspired by her elder sibling, she wished to take swimming lessons, eventually leading her to several podiums at a very tender age.
Regan Smith competed in the 2024 Paris Olympics, where she was part of the gold-winning 4x100m medley and 4x100m mixed medley teams. She also earned silver in the 100m backstroke, 200m backstroke, and 200m butterfly.
