FISH provides
fresh produce, staples, dairy, meat and other healthy foods. In 2023, we served 36,912 households which ensured that 129,665 people did not go hungry.* This is a 39% increase over 2022. During this time, FISH of Vancouver also distributed 1,768,496 pounds of food. (*Includes duplicated households and individuals.)
We could not survive without our volunteers. In 2023, FISH volunteers donated over 17,000 hours of service to help ensure food was distributed to hungry families. Approximately 27% of our clients are children and 17% are elderly – the most vulnerable of our community members.
We believe that food is a basic human right. Hunger stops each day at FISH.
