What Iowa Great Lakes Fishing Club does
Mission
Mission Statement To recruit youth to the sport, encouraging connection to the outdoors and fishing as a lifelong passion. Vision Statement To contribute to the environment and our communities by improving the quality of local fisheries and promoting involvement through educational and recreational activities.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Programs
In 2025, we interacted with over 900 kids through various fishing activities. Each event we supplied poles, bait, and volunteers to take kids fishing. The club also gave away over 900 tackle boxes to each kid that took part in our events. Each year the club has grown its outreach in the number of events, kids impacted, and counties serviced. The expenses shown below are specific to the purchase of fishing tackle that we give away throughout the year to the kids. The club also purchases gift cards to give away to kids at our own events for prizes for a mini fishing contest we do with them. Grants and allocations are including all sponsorship dollars we received regardless of if they were used for tackle or other objectives of the club.
