Congratulations and thanks to Far Bank companies Sage Manufacturing and RIO Products, which continued partnership with non-profit Casting for Recovery (CfR). Through a portion of sales from Sage’s GRACE Outfit and RIO’s custom RIO Gold pink line as well as company matching on each, CfR will receive $17,500 in funding to support its mission to educate an inspire women with breast cancer.
Casting for Recovery strives to enhance the life of women with breast cancer through a program combining health education and the sport of fly fishing. Free retreats allow women to find inspiration, discover renewed energy for life, and experience healing connections with other women and nature all while learning to fly fish.
“Our partnership with Sage and RIO allow CfR to bring more women to our retreats at no cost,” says Whitney Milhoan, executive director of CfR. “Since the beginning of our partnership in 2013, we have brought nearly 50 women fly fishing thanks to these generous donations.”
“We couldn’t be more excited about this program and the opportunities it allows CfR to create for women in any stage of breast cancer,” comments Sage and RIO vice president of marketing Tag Kleiner. “We really need to thank the entire fly fishing community. Their support of the GRACE Outfit and RIO Gold line allows us to be proud of this partnership and the opportunities it provides these women. We are looking forward to the continued alliance and donating even more in 2016.”
