DU C.A.S.T. is an official Ducks Unlimited program designed to financially assist scholastic fishing teams, with no profit retained by Ducks Unlimited. This program was developed to increase and sustain youth fishing participation by leveraging DU’s resources and fundraising proficiency.
DU C.A.S.T. offers discounted merchandise, professionally designed marketing materials, and fundraising tools for official youth fishing teams. One of the major benefits is that 100% of the net revenue earned stays with the participating team for their immediate use. The primary goal of DU C.A.S.T. is to support and empower youth fishing teams in their fundraising efforts.
Through DU C.A.S.T., your team will encounter no upfront fundraising or marketing costs, no time-consuming creation of sales materials, and no responsibilities for post-drawing delivery. Your team keeps 100% of the net profits raised and can use these funds immediately for any team needs.
All costs associated with the program, including marketing and sales materials, are covered in the package price, with no hidden charges. Prices include all promotional items, with up to 25 posters and 500 raffle tickets included. Additional raffle tickets can be purchased for a nominal fee. Please note, teams must comply with state and local fundraising regulations, as Ducks Unlimited does not provide a raffle license for C.A.S.T. raffles.
