We take at-risk kids in Palm Beach County on a journey to explore Florida’s marine environment, with a few life lessons along the way. Step into our programs and you’ll find kids learning fishing and marine science through lessons in class, on the water and online. These programs also offer a haven for kids who are facing instability or insecurity at home. It’s all part of our mission to inspire and educate local youth. We use fishing and marine life to show them how to care for the environment, build confidence and learn personal skills they can use throughout their lives. Help us reach at-risk kids and make a lifelong impact. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OUR PROGRAMS IMPACT YOUTH IN KEY AREAS Marine Science Education Life Skills & Job Training Environmental Stewardship -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SINCE OPENING IN 2006, WE’VE TOUCHED THE LIVES OF MORE THAN 28,000 CHILDREN.
