The angler, or shop, would choose which school/team their one pack goes to. Thoughts?

That way you would make more money per pack without being overpriced and have your baits name on a lot of jerseys out there for more exposure.

Hopefully, the donation part is separate from the purchase part. For example, the donation won't come at the tackle shop at the point of sale. It would be - and I'm speculating here - for every four bags shipped to a tackle store, he donates one bag to a high school team. I doubt that smaller tackle shops or even tackle warehouse would be able to handle the handing out of free bags of plastic. In order to work, I think he has to work it like Tom's shoes, where, for every pair purchased, Tom donates a pair to a kid in Africa.

Why waste your time keeping up with all the logistics of who and where the free bags of plastic go to? The sentiment is great but don't make it hard on yourself starting out. JMO

Philanthropy and helping younger people is great, but you can't and wont help anyone if your business tanks. I do not think the majority of fishermen will pay extra to help HS or college anglers out. They will pay extra for an excellent product. If you think they will then just make a portal on your website and take donations to help support HS or College anglers. Make money first, help second.
