iFishiBelong Volunteers

The establishment of the iFishiBelong 501(c)(3) nonprofit led several women from the original UWOTF team to broaden their scope, now encompassing all species, techniques, and people. While remaining deeply engaged with UWOTF, these women stand as powerful advocates for gender equality.
