As we close out 2024, we’re reaching out with an urgent call to support men’s mental health. Loneliness is a silent killer, and too many men are suffering in silence. With your help, FTGF is tackling this epidemic head-on, giving men the opportunity to connect, heal, and find hope through nature and community. We need your help to continue this important work. The loneliness epidemic isn’t going away on its own. But with your support, we can disrupt the cycle and give men the chance to live fuller, healthier, and happier lives.

Loneliness can feel overwhelming. It can make even the strongest people feel like there’s no way out. But the truth is, it doesn’t have to be permanent. With the right support and community, men can find their way back to themselves. When men step away from their daily stressors and get outside, amazing things happen. They open up, they connect with others, and they start to feel like themselves again. Through our retreats and community-building activities, we bring men together to find healing, connection, and a sense of purpose through the power of nature and fly fishing. Please consider making a donation today to help us continue our critical work in 2025: https://lnkd.in/gUrj8DDA

How far away we were from our fundraising goal ?? how close we are to hitting it! We’re thrilled to share that we’ve raised nearly $31K towards our $35K goal to support men’s mental health. We are looking for 80 donations of $50 to help us cross the finish line. Right now, loneliness is at an all-time high, especially among men. By supporting FTGF, you’re not just giving money; you’re giving hope. You’re helping men reclaim their lives and reconnect with themselves and others. Your donation will fund life-changing retreats, workshops, and resources that provide support and healing in the outdoors. Thank you for being a part of this mission.
