Community Outreach
In 2025, PSBA donated $24,000 to The Jubilee Kitchen whose dedication to providing meals for those in need. We also raised $3,200 to support the Goodfellow Toy Drive and were able to continue our tradition of awarding a college scholarship. We were honored to present the $2,500 scholarship to Noah Mackie who plans to attend Grove City College.
We are thrilled to announce The Mayfly Project as the 2026 Children's Charity. The Mayfly Project supports youth in foster care through fly fishing, helping them build confidence, find healing, and connect to their local waters.
The charity focuses on mentoring and supporting children in foster care, many of whom face challenges such as trauma and instability.
The Project introduces children in foster care to fly fishing and teaches conservation and environmental awareness and helps provide the children with a rewarding hobby, personal growth, improved self-confidence, and social skills.
