"Casting for a Cause" is a non-profit organization based in Homestead, Florida, dedicated to supporting children affected by Prader-Willi Syndrome. Incorporating on January 15, 2009, with filing number L09000005253 under the Florida Aligned Limited category, it operates as Florida Models.Dos.FloridaCompanyStatus. Led by Chief Executive Officer Sauzhunee Davis, the organization coordinates unique fishing tournaments statewide to raise funds for research and support services related to this complex genetic disorder.
Prader-Willi Syndrome affects approximately 1 in every 12,000 births, presenting significant challenges such as insatiable hunger, slowed metabolism, cognitive impairment, and other health difficulties. "Casting for a Cause" leverages annual events like its annual fishing tournaments, where offshore or inshore competitions take place simultaneously in local regions. This not only provides fundraising opportunities but also raises awareness about the syndrome.
The funds generated are allocated to support vital research projects aimed at finding a cure, enhancing educational resources, and offering crisis intervention for both school and medical concerns faced by affected individuals. Moreover, these funds promote public understanding of Prader-Willi Syndrome to improve institutional support systems.
Despite having to temporarily postpone its 9th tournament due to personal circumstances impacting the lead organizers, "Casting for a Cause" remains committed to resuming its activities, with ambitions to return stronger for future events starting in 2019. The organization is based out of Roswell, Georgia, but primarily serves Florida, and engages with local communities through various sponsorship opportunities available via their website, castingforacause.com.
