Event Details

 

Please join the Office of Louisiana Lt. Governor Scott A. Angelle and Operation Blessing International in our fundraising efforts by participating in the Fisheries Fun Run/Walk.

 

Operation Blessing International (OBI) is working in partnership with the LSU AgCenter/Louisiana Sea Grant Program and the Louisiana Seafood Promotion and Marketing Board (LSPMB) to help Louisiana crab fishermen and their families affected by the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

 

100% of all funds donated to the Fisheries Fun Run/Walk will go directly to a project to help purchase specially designed crab shedding systems for crab fisherman. These systems, which cost approximately $2,000 each, are being manufactured in Westwego, Louisiana, thus helping our local economy even further. Each system donated is expected to increase a family’s income by approximately $14,000 annually.
