The “Catch A Special Thrill” (C.A.S.T.) for Kids Foundation is a public charity formed in 1991. Our mission is to join volunteers who love to fish with children with special needs for a day of fishing in the outdoors. The Foundation was granted 501(c)3 status in 1994 and currently hosts two programs; C.A.S.T. for Kids and Take A Warrior Fishing. The C.A.S.T. for Kids Program is designed to create an environment where special needs children and their caretakers can leave their problems on shore and share a day of fun and fishing on the water that they may not otherwise get to experience. The charity furthers its mission by increasing awareness of disabled and disadvantaged children in communities and teaching appreciation for natural resources. This is all made possible through the cooperation of government agencies, national and local sponsors, and local interest groups, and creates a rare and positive experience for America’s youth. Established in 2011, the Take A Warrior Fishing Program is designed to support military personnel and their families. This program specifically targets individuals assigned to Warrior Transition Commands, and creates an adaptive community-based outdoor recreation experience through the sport of fishing. The main goals of this program are to restore that disconnect by increasing family interaction, encouraging outdoor recreation, and supporting positive, social interactions that help transitioning service members rebuild connections with the civilian world. The Foundation headquarters is located in Salem, Oregon, but our events are hosted all across the nation. With the help of volunteers, we host over 70 events each year.
