About the Foundation:

The Zak M Davis Memorial Foundation was created as a non-profit by Zak's mom, Amy, and his Nana, Jackie, in hopes of supporting youth fishing clubs in Zak's honor, as he was so passionate about fishing. The Foundation is a labor of love to help keep Zak's memory and love of fishing alive by paying it forward to the clubs that meant so much to him!

​​

The money raised by the Foundation supports the clubs by providing tournament fees, bait & tackle, awards, team jerseys, banquets, and club fees. 100% of funds raised by the foundation are used to support the clubs.
