Bryn Merrell | Artist & Illustrator

Jennings Hester | Founder of Fishing the Good Fight
Our mission is to improve all lives by serving men facing mental health challenges. Men comprise over 80% of all suicides in the US, while making up less than 20% of people treated for a mental illness or substance abuse. While we focus on directly reducing those statistics by working with men, it affects the entire community. Behind every man is a partner, spouse, family and friends. We want to help every one of them improve their quality of life. Read more>>
