In response to the fund raising difficulties encountered by many of the local charities/non-profits, the Flying Fish Fleet has created the “Fishing with Friends” program.
Under this program, we are offering our two 80 passenger fishing boats to charity and non-profit groups as a means of generating much needed donations. Each organization that sells a minimum of 25 tickets for a 6-hour fishing trip at the regular adult fare of $70.00 will receive a $625.00 donation from the Flying Fish Fleet. That equates to $25.00 for each ticket sold. The more tickets you sell the greater our donation to your organization. Only the gratuities and fish cleaning will be the responsibility of the respective angler. After each trip the resulting fish fillets can be donated to a local food bank or utilized at a fish fry to further benefit your organization. Regularly scheduled fishing trips can provide a consistent revenue source for the charity/non-profit throughout the year. We hope our program can assist you in your efforts to raise money.
We would be happy to answer any further questions you have about this program, as well as meet with your organization to discuss this opportunity.
