The Fish-A-Thon is an event designed to be a financial vehicle for ministries in Minneapolis and St. Paul. The goal is to mobilize over 10,000 area youth to participate on area lakes, or whatever body of water they choose, throughout Summer 2008.
Participants gather pledges throughout the summer. The money raised through pledges will be distributed to local Christian ministries focusing specifically on urban youth programs.
Those who raise over a certain amount in pledges will be eligible for special prizes. All who participate will have the satisfaction of knowing that their hard work contributed to a worthy cause where another local child benefited.
