Join us for a fish fry at NAMIWalks! 🐟🍴
On October 4th, we’re thrilled to welcome Juan Taylor and his nonprofit, “Fishen with a Mission.” Inspired by his late mother, Juan started the organization 7 years ago to share the joy and peace of a fish fry to people impacted by mental illness, addiction, and houselessness. We’re fortunate enough for Juan to bring his mission to us in support of NAMIWalks. Check out the generous organizations that made Fishen with a Mission’s presence at NAMIWalks Athens possible!
