F.I.S.H.: One group working to eradicate poverty connects with Our Day and the book's goals

F.I.S.H.: "Families & Individuals Seeking Hope" is a grassroots organization dedicated to eradicating poverty in South Royalton, VT. And they want to use Our Day to help them. These seven people have come together, bringing their diverse talents, to assist people in the following ways: budgeting, education, reliable transportation, weatherization or other home repairs and safe dependable child or elder care. Some of them work for area social-services groups and are very tired of not meeting the larger challenge of actually eliminating poverty in their town.

Karen Speerstra reported in about F.I.S.H. and her dream that other small communities will take up the challenge of eliminating poverty close to home. We hope that F.I.S.H. will show other communities what's possible and we will all see progress, like little yeast bubbles popping.
