Founded in 1969, Wadsworth FISH was originally formed to assist children in our school system who were in need of food and clothing. It soon became apparent that to help the children, the parent(s) needed assistance with being able to pay rent, utilities and other services in order to keep the family together in a home. We continue to assist in the same manner, but our organization has grown to assisting with prescriptions for those with no insurance, phone service, gasoline to get to work, and various other needs arising from poverty, divorce, job loss, and/or catastrophic illness. Additionally, we provide services to surrounding community residents with services including Angel Food Ministries grocery relief program and Marian s Closet, our free clothing and household items store. ..
