BASIC NEEDS
MET WITH DIGNITY
Food makes it possible for kids to learn, for adults to focus better at work, and for seniors to stay healthy and active. With your support, we’re providing food for all.
We’re Social!
There are over 40,000 adults living in Kittitas County. What if each adult gave just $1 or one can of food on game day? Imagine the impact on FISH, Kittitas County's Food Bank?
In 2021:
Our Meals on Wheels program served 21,463 meals to disabled, homebound and seniors in Cle Elum, Roslyn, Ronald, Ellensburg and Kittitas.
Our Open Table Meal Sites, a part of the Senior Nutrition Program, provided an additional 16,238 hot lunches for seniors in Cle Elum and Ellensburg.
The new Food is Medicine program delivered 4,636 meals in its first year, helping people deal with health issues including diabetes and high blood pressure.
Picnic in the Park Summer Meals Program hit a record-breaking number, distributing 65,168 meals to children in Easton, Cle Elum/Roslyn, Ellensburg and Kittitas, who may have, otherwise, gone hungry without a school lunch.
Our Ellensburg Pantry and 3 Mobile Pantry locations served more than 6,100 households with easy-to-access food near where they live.

The working to enroll and check in clients in the pantry is a great way to connect to local neighbors and directly impact their experience of using the food pantry.
Looking to work behind the scenes and be part of the solution for both food insecurity and environmentalism?

Why not harness the energy and enthusiasm of Super Bowl weekend, a time when people come together for football, food and fun, to unite the nation for a higher good? Individuals and groups could collect dollars in soup pots and canned food for those in need and send every dollar and food donation DIRECTLY to a local charity of THEIR choice.
