At our Nov 7 meeting, Frank N. Gallagher enlighten us about the wonderful humanitarian work of the Doylestown FISH organization. FISH is a non-profit that provides emergency assistance to people in need when no other timely assistance is available.

The Doylestown FISH was founded in 1973. The FISH movement started in Oxford, England, in 1961 and is based on the Christian mission of serving the needy members of society. The movement had spread throughout the United Kingdom and then throughout the United States. The mission of the Doylestown FISH is to provide emergency one-time assistance to people in need when no other timely assistance is available. Although FISH receives much of its funding from local churches, it provides help regardless of religious affiliation, race, gender or any other personal factor.
