This next conversation is about access, joy, and creating moments that truly matter. The C.A.S.T. for Kids Foundation is dedicated to making fishing accessible for children with special needs — bringing together volunteers, sponsors, and families for events that offer a break from daily challenges and a whole lot of joy. Each child is welcomed with their own fishing rod, tackle box, and the chance to build confidence, connection, and unforgettable memories. Todd Woods, Regional Director for the California and Arizona C.A.S.T. For Kids Foundation, discusses the heart behind this mission.
