Captains for Clean Water

Captains For Clean Water is a grassroots 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that fights to restore and protect our water resources.

In 2016, they started as a couple fishing guides that had “had enough” of Florida’s poor water management practices devastating the estuaries we rely on. They were convinced that if everyone knew about the issues, they would’ve been fixed long ago. The solution is known, but has been delayed for decades due to lack of political will and public awareness. So, Captains For Clean Water set out to change that.

They work to advance science-based solutions through efforts focused on awareness and education, empowering people like you to speak up for our water quality and hold elected officials accountable. Together, they’ve united the outdoor industry, environmental groups, business community and concerned citizens around these important issues, and are seeing more people than ever get involved in the fight for clean water. As a result, progress is happening at a record pace, but we still have a long way to go and they need your help.
