Through our Mustang Survival Waterlife Fund, we invest in individuals, organizations, and nonprofits addressing environmental and social issues related to water. We proudly support action-oriented members of the salt and freshwater communities in their efforts toward clean-up, restoration, research, stewardship, and inclusion. This includes projects aimed at maintaining coastal access, promoting gender diversity and equity, enhancing inclusivity for people with disabilities, and protecting marine life. By donating funds and products to like-minded groups, we seek to achieve a positive collective impact on our environment and community.
