Become a Sponsor
We ask for your support in the fight to preserve and maintain the quality angling that we are currently enjoying. Please become a contributing sponsor in one of the ways suggested below.
Product Option
Companies may donate product in lieu of cash. The Mossback Grant Program and Reef Ball Grant are great examples of such a sponsorship. Contact us directly if you wish to sponsor through in-kind product donations.
How Donations Are Used
Sponsorships are most often used to directly fund the Friends of Reservoirs "Small Grants Program". FOR provides $1000-$2,500 grant awards exclusively to Friends of Reservoirs members to be used on a "local" habitat restoration project. These grants are competitive and have been FOR's most effective member recruiting tool. See the Grants page for more information on the Small Projects Grant Program.
Companies may wish to sponsor a "local" habitat restoration project. Shell Oil sponsored a habitat restoration project on Lake Nessmuck, Pennsylvania. This type of sponsorship gives a company local exposure and promotes a conservation-minded image to its constituents/customers.
Finally, cash sponsorships can also support the Reservoir Fisheries Habitat Sponsorship/Friends of Reservoirs annual meeting held annually. This meeting highlights partner projects and serves as a venue for training and highlighting activities from the previous years. Sponsorships help us reduce the cost of the meeting registration and may even support travel for FOR Chapter representatives, who are typically anglers and community volunteers without formal travel support from an employer.
