What is Redbone?
Redbone operates at the intersection of professional sports, environmental advocacy, and medical philanthropy. As a non-profit organization, it distinguishes itself through a series of high-profile catch-and-release fishing tournaments that serve as the primary vehicle for fundraising. By engaging a diverse community of sportsmen, guides, and celebrities, particularly in the Florida Keys, the organization creates a high-engagement ecosystem that transcends traditional charitable giving. Beyond its tournament operations, Redbone maintains a strong editorial presence through the Redbone Journal, which serves as a platform for discussing environmental conservation and the preservation of South Florida's delicate ecosystems. This dual-pronged approach allows the organization to maintain a loyal donor base while simultaneously advocating for the natural habitats that support its core activities.
