Our Mission at FISH NWCTThe mission of FISH NWCT is to provide the most basic of human needs - food, shelter and hope.
Since opening our doors in 1972, FISH has evolved into our region's largest emergency homeless shelter (35 beds) in the NWCT corner, providing families, individuals and veterans a safe and secure haven as they await permanent supportive housing; serving as a food pantry for area residents. We served over 2,600 people in the last year and distributed food for more than 182,000 meals. In May, we hosted our 7th Annual "A Tasteful Event" fundraiser at Litchfield Community Center. Thanks to all who provided food & drink, our event sponsors, auction donors, volunteers, and to all who attended! 
Thank you to all of our gENEROUS sponsors of "A Tasteful Event," 2025!
