The report showcases a vast array of positive outcomes and results, from statistical data to personal feedback from participants. The Rock Fishing Safety Project has been able to supply over 1,000 lifejackets to the community, educate 3,737 people and reach approximately 18,000 people with the message of safety.
We look forward to continuing to work in this space and bringing more education and lifejackets to target communities.
