Jim Holden
Founder & CEO, Fish for Life
Jim resides in San Clemente, California with his wife, Sue. Originally from King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, Jim developed a deep love for fishing at a young age — a passion that ultimately became a calling.
Guided by his faith and a heart for serving others, Jim founded Fish for Life to create joyful, life-changing experiences for children with special needs and their families through the power of fishing and time on the ocean.
Under Jim’s leadership, Fish for Life has grown into a nationally recognized nonprofit, bringing dignity, inclusion, and unforgettable memories to hundreds of families. His vision and dedication continue to inspire volunteers, donors, and communities across the country.
“Bringing dignity, inclusion, and new possibilities to special needs children.”
John 15:12
“My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.”
