Carson City Elks donate $2,500 'Gratitude Grant' to FISH revitalization project
The Carson City Elks' $2,500 Gratitude Grant this year went to Friends in Service Helping, also known as FISH, to fund the furnishing of one of the 36 apartments built to house clients while they pursue transitional training to get out of poverty.
FISH is working with Western Nevada College while the clients are enrolled in nursing, welding, and other vocational programs for the revitalization project.
Room furnishing donations and sponsorships can still be made by going here: https://www.nvfish.com/donate.
