The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is reminding organizations that the application period for the 2025 Vamos A Pescar™ Grant Program will soon close. This initiative, in collaboration with the Recreational Boating and Fishing Foundation (RBFF), offers funding to local groups aiming to educate Florida Hispanic youth and families on ethical angling, conservation, and basic fishing skills.
Since its inception in 2016, the FWC has partnered with RBFF to support this program, funding 18 initiatives over the years. The ongoing collaboration seeks to boost participation in recreational angling and boating while promoting conservation efforts and preserving aquatic resources in Florida.
Interested parties are encouraged to visit MyFWC.com/VAP to submit their applications before the deadline on November 29, 2024.
