Who Are We?
Fishing for the Future is an up and coming organization focused on preserving and enjoying the great outdoors and the James River in Richmond Virginia. Our mission is to host a fishing day at a location along the James River in order to raise awareness about the increasing levels of fishing pollution.
HistoryThe James River has been a landmark feature of the south for generations. As the modern world moves on, the James River is becoming more and more polluted. From an increase in trash and litter to a higher rate of nitrogen and phosphorus pollution, the river is being harmed. The James River has a habitat score of 61%, far below a superior grade. Action needs to be taken to protect the environment and make sure that the outdoors will always be a place of enjoyment and fun.
Partners
We have partnered with the James River Park System as well as the James River Outdoor Coalition (JROC) and Bass Pro will be providing the prizes.
