As population centers expand, more and more waterfront land is lost forever to development, and Pennsylvania's sportsmen and women find they have fewer and fewer places in which to pursue their favorite pastime. CAP was created to help stem that tide.
How?
The Commission accepts donations of money from those who care about the future of fishing and boating and the public’s ability to access these opportunities. The Commission then matches every dollar donated to the CAP program. But it doesn't stop there. These combined funds are used to attract other funding partners—conservancies, corporations and others—and may ultimately be used as matching funds for federally supported acquisition projects. A donated dollar can potentially turn into several dollars of buying power.
The success of the CAP program is dependent on the generosity of individuals. It takes an initial donation to start building a partnership of support. No amount is too small, and certainly, none is too big. The future starts tomorrow, and we can only influence it by what we do today.
