Great Fish, Great Success!

We are so grateful to our community who invested in the lives of our kids through the Great Fish Community Challenge. Your gift provides support for our kids, ensuring them a safe home surrounded by caring adults. As they navigate the challenges of abuse, neglect, mental health issues, and substance abuse, they are reminded they do not walk their journey alone.
 
Together, we raised $76,854! Together, lives are changed!
 
Special thank you to the amazing team at the Whitefish Community Foundation for hosting this incredible event for our nonprofit community.

Thank you for joining us at our Annual Summer Party…despite the cold and rain!

Since we began holding this event in 1981, this was by-far the rainiest event we’ve experienced! Despite that fact, so many of you remained committed to attend, were patient with staff and volunteers as we managed how the weather was impacting your experience, and most importantly, gave generously! Thank you to all who joined us on September 11th and to our sponsors who helped make this event a reality! We hope to see you again on September 10th, 2025 – on what is sure to be a gorgeous and sunny late summer evening in Missoula!
