FISH (Friends in Service Helping) FISH Friends In Service Helping

Serving others in Douglas, Carson, Lyon and outlying Counties by serving the homeless and hungry is an ongoing effort by people of goodwill in our communities. Since 1979, FISH has been working to meet those needs and provide a variety of resources and referrals to help individuals and families overcome the hardships they face. Together, these resources provide a higher quality of life for families, children, veterans, people with disabilities and seniors in our community.

95% of all FISH services come from local donations!
