Dear Spearos,
MAKO Spearguns is holding an Ebay auction to raise funds and awareness for a non profit organization called, "Diving For A Cause". Diving For A Cause (DFAC) is a humanitarian, not for profit, organization created to help children and communities in need all over the world. Diving For A cause is helping to make a difference in the lives of so many children through our passion for spearfishing.
Founded by Colleen Gallagher, DFAC hosts spearfishing trips in places such as Nicaragua, La Paz, Cape Hatteras, The Channel Islands, Ecuador, New Zealand and Tobago. 70% of all the fish harvested is given back to the communities who use these financial resources to support their local schools and medical clinics.
Dive safe, Dano Krahling
Colleen Gallagher, a nurse in the ICU and also a spear fisherman, started her charity called Diving for a Cause. She had witnessed a friend spearfish, take the fish and give back to the local community. She wanted to do the same so she created DFAC. Now Gallagher uses her extra money, along with the help from host countries, to subsidize the costs for divers to travel to destinations and give back to the local communities with fish. She also wanted to give back locally so DFAC joined with the local dive club on the east coast at the Hatteras and they are raising money with a spearfishing event in July for Cystic Fibrosis. DFAC directs all the net proceeds to CF. More info at www.divingforacause.org
