27th Annual Fishing Tournament and Family Fun Day

The Sunshine Foundation extends heartfelt gratitude to our ALL-VOLUNTEER Southern Ocean County Chapter, dedicated volunteers, generous sponsors, and all the amazing fisherfolk and party-goers who helped make CJ’s dream a reality! ☀️Sweet CJ, who faces significant developmental challenges due to three extra chromosomes, was overjoyed with his family upon hearing the exciting news: he’s going to LEGOLAND Florida, Universal Studios Florida, and Disney World in Orlando!

The All-Volunteer Southern Ocean County Chapter hosted its 27th Annual Fishing Tournament and Family Fun Day at the American Legion #493 in Little Egg Harbor Twp. Boaters fished for fluke or bluefish in the morning, then joined families for BBQ, music, games, and fun at the American Legion.

The Fishing Tournament raised funds to make Charles’ dream come true. Charles, with severe intellectual disability and low muscle tone, wants to visit Disney World and SeaWorld!

Fish, Food, and Fun! Thank you for helping to make dreams come true!
