A Newport Beach-based nonprofit organization raised $15,000 to help needy

families throughout the county that can’t afford to pay rent or buy

enough food.

Friends in Service to Humanity (FISH) held its second annual Charity Golf

Tournament on April 3 at the Sea Cliff Country Club in Huntington Beach.

More than 100 golfers participated in the event.

The group, a United Way Agency, is dedicated to helping families before

they become homeless. About 500 volunteers devote time to meet with

families, evaluate their needs and help them get back on their feet.

The organization is already planning its next golf tournament and is

seeking sponsors.
