“Introducing children to the art of fly fishing is not really about the fish we catch. It’s about helping them, as it helps so many of us, by providing an escape, promoting character, building relationships, and connecting us with nature.” –Jeremiah Russell, Lead Mentor, Huntsville, Alabama Project
We chose Huntsville, Alabama, for our 5th project in 2023 because we instantly loved Jeremiah and his passion for making the world a better place! They had a very successful season!
Jeremiah said, “We wrapped up the final outing of our inaugural year with a float down Sipsey Fork (the only year-round trout fishery in the state of Alabama). We had great mentors and even better kids! Each child brought joy to our lives, and I know that we gave them love and hopefully some fly fishing skills they will carry with them the rest of their lives. I’m looking forward to planning our next year’s project soon.”
Our first year projects are supported by TMP national donors and our company partners! If you would like to sponsor a child to participate in this Huntsville project next season, please donate on their project page below or contact us! Thank you to the Huntsville Project for making this year so special for these kids!!!
