Fly Fishers International is committed to the conservation of fisheries and their habitats. Through various projects and programs, their mission focuses on ensuring the preservation of fishing resources for future generations. With over 50 years of conservation efforts, FFI dedicates itself to protecting fisheries and angling opportunities for the long term.
The Conservation Grants program by Fly Fishers International aims to support conservation and restoration projects. It provides grants to clubs, councils, and other organizations to aid in these endeavors. The program has a specific interest in projects that help local communities, exemplified by grants given for tasks such as purchasing land to open public access to river fronts. The program embodies Fly Fishers International's founding principle of conservation, asserting a commitment to supporting local and broader efforts to maintain and enhance fishery environments. While primarily focusing on funding its own clubs and councils, FFI also opens its grants to proposals from outside organizations.
