Pick It Forward for Orphans is a 501c3 dedicated to helping foster children in our community.  This fishing tournament has and will continue to help support local foster children.  Organizations that we will help with the proceeds from this tournament include, Making a New Way, Faith and Fostering, House of Grace, and Royal Family Kids Camp!  We have supported Making a New Way and Royal Family Kids Camp in the past and we are adding two new organizations that run programs for children aging out of foster care.  We can support more children each year because of your support of this tournament.  Come have fun, invite friends, and make a difference.  Thank you so much for giving of your heart for these children that don't have parents!
