Story

For nine years Fishing for a Cause (FFAC) has been about doing something you love... for the benefit of some truly incredible children.

This year we're launching FISHING FROM AFAR - a DIY-way to enjoy the tradition and fun of FFAC, without the COVID-19 worries. Your friends, your rules. Go fish!

Beginning Saturday, June 13 through Saturday, August 15, friends of The Schwartz School and Meeting Street can launch their own mini fishing tournaments using this website. Setup is easy, just click the orange "Start Fundraising" button on the right.

We've included a sample format below, and we encourage you to make it your own. Challenge your friends, share your photos, spread the word, and remember... each dollar raised will help a child reach their greatest potential!

Not interested in hosting a tournament? No problem! Create a page that explains your connection to Meeting Street | The Schwartz Center and ask your contacts to contribute. Donations of $100 or more receive this ultra-soft t-shirt:
