Our Story

Bro 2 Bro was founded by Karen Johnston and Jonathan Johnston to honor Walter Goodloe III and continue the love he showed to the people around him.

Walter had a special place in his heart for children, family, fishing, and bringing people together. He was loyal, genuine, playful, and always made the people he loved feel like they belonged.

Bro 2 Bro was created to carry that same spirit forward. Every young man encouraged, every family supported, every fishing line cast, and every helping hand extended keeps Walter’s memory alive.

What We Do

Our programs focus on:

  • Connecting at-risk young men with positive adult role models.

  • Hosting the Walter Goodloe III Annual Fishing Experience.

  • Helping individuals and families with moving and other physical needs.

  • Organizing community outreach events and donation drives.

  • Creating opportunities for service, leadership, and personal growth.

  • Connecting families with helpful resources and community support.

Two young men. Two opportunities. One lasting legacy.

Why Our Work Matters

Many young men need dependable role models, encouragement, and safe spaces where they can grow. Families may also experience difficult situations without enough physical help, resources, or community support.

Bro 2 Bro works to help fill those gaps by bringing caring people together and turning compassion into action. We believe that showing up for someone—even through one small act of kindness—can make a lasting difference.

Carrying the Legacy Forward

Bro 2 Bro is more than an organization. It is a commitment to show up for others, create positive opportunities, strengthen families, and keep Walter’s love alive through service.

Together, we are building stronger young men, stronger families, and a stronger community—one act of kindness at a time.
