What are some good fly fishing/environmental charities?

[Yambag Nelson]

I made a new years resolution some time ago to make a donation to a different charity every month.  Most have been fishing/environmental in nature but I am finding that i have reached a point where a lot are repeats so I am looking for some that I may not be aware of.  What are your favorites?

Casting for Recovery

Chesapeake Women Anglers, now a 501.3.c organization, historically dedicated to getting women into fly fishing.

Potomac conservancy, nature conservancy, james river foundation, Mayfly Project, soulriverinc is one I was recently made aware of that sounds super important in our current times.  These are a few that I like to support or am interested in supporting.

================================================

"There are 10 types of people in this world, those who know binary, and those who don't"

[Fly Fish]

Potomac and Shenandoah River Keepers are run under one organization.  Everyone who fishes either of those Rivers should be supportive of their hard work.

Friends of the Rappahanock do a lot of good work on the upper Rappahanock and Rapidan rivers.

www.fishingcommunity.org is a small local nonprofit that sponsors events for veterans, families and kids.  It is 100% donation funded and no staff/overhead - all volunteer.  (as opposed to big non profits where CEO is pulling down 200K+ salary, etc).  

[Brian]

The Mayfly Project.  Mentoring foster children through flyfishing.  https://themayflyproject.com/

[Yambag Nelson]

Appreciate all of the suggestions.  A few im well familiar with, a few new ones.

This is one i like,  It is the Cacapon & Lost river land trust.  Full disclosure I am a land owner on the cacapon,  but the lost river is a trout stream,  and its head waters above wardensville hold native bookies.  It also is a tributary of the Potomac as it emerges from the bedrock in wardensville  and turns into the cacapon river.
