Our Mission
FISH collaborates with community partners to improve food security, nutrition security, and health outcomes in Central Washington.
FISH Believes Everyone Has a Place at the Table
Since 1971, Friends in Service to Humanity (FISH) has been the resource for food for anyone in Kittitas County who needs groceries, a meal, or a friend.
At FISH, we believe our community’s greatest strength is the many different people who make it up. We honor the variety of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives in Kittitas County — and we are committed to making sure everyone feels welcome.
Our doors are open to anyone in Kittitas County who needs groceries, a meal, or connection and support. Respect and dignity are at the heart of everything we do, and we expect the same high standard of care from everyone involved with FISH and Open Table.
Providing food is essential, but we know it’s only part of the solution. Hunger is tied to challenges in health, housing, education, and employment. That’s why FISH goes beyond temporary relief, working alongside partners like the Department of Social and Health Services, Central Washington University, Community Health of Central Washington, the Kittitas County Health Network, local churches, Rotary Clubs, and many others. Together, we address the root causes of food insecurity and build long-term solutions.
FISH is known for innovation, collaboration, and building programs that meet people where they are. Our goal is simple: when our neighbors no longer need us, we’ve succeeded.
