The majority of the flies Yellowstone Fly Goods provides are tied in the Philippines. The organization we are involved with is a non-profit organization called IDEA, or International Deaf Education Association. All of the flies tied in the Philippines are tied by the deaf. Dennis Drake conceived IDEA back in the 80’s. After finishing a Peace Corps program working with the deaf, Dennis decided to make his passion of working with the deaf his life career. The mission of IDEA is to assist the Deaf in the Philippines to achieve self-reliance by providing academic, vocational, physical, spiritual, and economic opportunities. Many hundreds of deaf children have gone to school with the help from IDEA. A large percentage of the students that have graduated from school are now employed in IDEA Philippines operated businesses and its sister foundation, Bohol Foundation for the Deaf and Disabled. The fly tying business is one of Idea’s ongoing businesses.
