Fishing For Heroes is a project we have been working on for quite awhile. Along with some friends and family, I have created this non-profit organization to support the men and woman of our armed forces.

Often we hear stories of soldiers who struggle with the transition back to civilian life after returning from deployment. Sadly, this struggle results in some even taking their lives.

The purpose of this non-profit is to allow the men and women and their families a chance to enjoy outdoor recreational experiences in a relaxing environment away from the stresses of whatever they may be fighting, at no cost to them. Fishing For Heroes activities will be extended to retired military, their immediate families, and the immediate families of those K.I.A.

Fishing For Heroes will provide the following activities:
Guided fishing trips
Unguided fishing trips
Camping
Weekend getaways ......with more to come!

Please join us in doing all we can to assist our veterans in need and reduce the number of veteran suicides. If you would like to donate to our organization and help us get some veterans and their families into the outdoors, we would be forever grateful! Any little bit that you can spare counts!

Mods, please move if in the wrong spot or delete if not allowed.
This non-profit was formed by my son to help our military veterans deal with the adverse affects from war and readjusting back into every day life after returning home from service. Fishing For Heroes is brand new and can use any and all support possible, please help to spread the word as many items as well as monetary donations will be needed to make this a success. FFH could use some guide support from those with boats whom could lend a hand or from anyone who could volunteer in any aspect. I am a proud supporter of our military veterans with our oldest son being an Iraqi war veteran. Please reach out to Colton at Fishing For Heroes either on Facebook or on their web site and see how your generosity can make a huge difference in a veterans life. Thank you Colton for selflessly giving you time and resources to help our veterans.

Fishing For Heroes needs your help. If you have any unneeded terminal tackle or any extra baits that you could spare, they would greatly appreciate it and your donation will be tax deductible. If there are any fishing guides, whatever species you fish for, that would be willing to help out, it wold be awesome. It takes true dedication to make something like this a success, and it just can't be done without other members of the fishing community and fishing establishments. Thank you Colton Quick for your dedication and gallant effort with this. Thank you to the Face Book member for your rod and reel donations, they will be put to good use and our veterans will greatly appreciate it.
