Thank You!

A Look Back at 2021

In light of the difficulties presented in the last two years, Pine Island FISH is particularly grateful for the outpouring of support from our donors, volunteers and  Valued Partners.  In addition to donations throughout the year, our community really stepped up to support the Clothing for Kids and Christmas Brigades in 2021. 


With the support of so many we were able to shift many of our processes online and use safety protocols to loan over 400 pieces of mobility equipment and offer over $25,000 in financial support to those in need.  We also were able to help over 150 of our island children get their school year off to a  good start with new clothes and shoes and brighten Christmas for over 270 children and their families with toys, stocking stuffers, and holiday meals. We regretted having had to curtail our transportation services for some time during the pandemic, but even so, we were able to transport over 120 clients to needed medical, dental, financial and related appointments, as well as provide pick up and delivery from the food pantry.  


We were fortunate to continue our partnerships over the year with the Matlacha Hookers, Beacon of Hope, Pine Island Food Pantry, several churches, and the Pine Island Elementary School to ensure support to all island residents in need.

 

 Pine Island FISH is entering its 36th successful year and continues its endeavors for those in need in the greater Pine Island areas - all made possible by such generosity.
