A Note From Our President

My name is Ronnie Cadle, I would like to introduce myself and Hooked on Heroes organization. Doing something like this has been a lifelong dream of mine, to be able to do something for our Veterans. Whether they are just returning home or have been home for years. I know all to well the feelings of being alone and forgotten after coming home from Vietnam. It is a feeling I do not want any Veteran to experience, so I started Hooked on Heroes a nonprofit organization dedicated to making Veterans feel that they are apart of something and that they are not forgotten.

Our goal is to take all Veterans with or without disabilities, young and elderly on a day of fishing at absolutely no cost to them. It is an opportunity for them to relax and have a stress free day alongside other Veterans. We strive to make them as comfortable as possible and give them the best opportunity we can to catch fish and have fun. With our support these Veterans get to do something that might not otherwise be possible. We plan to have two trips a year about six months apart. Our next two trips are scheduled for April 1st, 2023 & Sept 30, 2023. We hope to be taking 200 Veterans on this trip.

Hooked on Heroes would like to ask for you support, 100% of your donation is tax deductible and will go to helping our Veteran on their next adventure with us. Our organization is ran by only volunteers. We have no paid employees to ensure every cent goes to helping these Veterans have a memorable day fishing. We supply them with rod and reels, bait, food and drinks. We supply the boats which are captained by volunteers from our community, we supply them with fuel and the opportunity to make a Veterans day. We would like to thank you in advance for considering us and taking the time to hear what our organization is all about.
