FISH is on the move!

Starting today, Lakes Area FISH will be serving clients at its new location, United Methodist Church at Lakewood, 6900 Steilacoom Blvd. SW in Lakewood. The food bank will also adopt new hours, open Monday 2:00 to 6:00 p.m., Wednesday and Friday 1:00 to 5:00 p.m.

After 35 years at Little Church on the Prairie, Lakes FISH has simply outgrown its longtime home. Over the past two years, Lakes FISH has nearly doubled in number of clients served, from 16,602 clients in 2008 to 24,834 in 2009.

Many, many thanks to the congregation of Little Church on the Prairie for all their support over the years. They've been a huge part of FISH's history. We're thrilled that they will continue to work with us in our new location.

And the moves haven't stopped! FISH Food Banks is also moving its main office from its current site in the Associated Ministries building to a larger space in First Tower, part of the First United Methodist Church in Tacoma.

Effective at the beginning of April, our new office address will be: FISH Food Banks, First Tower, Suite 202, 621 Tacoma Ave. S, Tacoma 98402.
