Our foundation is intricately woven around the pillars of charity and education, committed to making a meaningful impact.

At the heart of our mission lies a dedication to the meticulous conservation and understanding of North Carolina's coastal fisheries. Specifically honing in on recreational fishing, we embark on a journey that encompasses diverse activities and programs. From conducting and supporting cutting-edge research in marine ecology and fisheries biology to advocating for sustainable fishing practices—we're at the forefront.

But it doesn't end there. Our commitment extends beyond the waters, delving into comprehensive educational outreach. We aim to enlighten the public on the significance of marine biodiversity and conservation, fostering a community that cherishes and protects these invaluable resources.

Engaging in fundraising activities, education initiatives, and community outreach, we stand shoulder to shoulder with other organizations dedicated to the rehabilitation of disabled active military service personnel, disabled veterans, and other members in need within our community.

In our pursuit of enhancing lives, we turn to the therapeutic qualities of fly fishing and associated activities. Through education and organized outings, we strive to create a positive impact on the physical and emotional well-being of individuals. By advocating for policies that ensure the long-term health of North Carolina's coastal fisheries, we simultaneously support the prosperity of our communities.

Our foundation is not just an idea; it's a commitment. We establish and offer programs and services aligned with our goals. Furthermore, we channel our funds and resources towards individuals and charitable organizations that share similar objectives and purposes, under the careful discretion of our esteemed Board of Directors.

Operating within the legal framework, we acknowledge and exercise all the powers granted to corporations under the laws of the State of North Carolina. However, our focus remains unwaveringly on the exempt purposes outlined in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. We adhere to stringent guidelines, ensuring that our actions align with the principles set forth for tax-exempt organizations.
