Fill Our Cache

Fill Our Cache is a fish and berry donation drive that benefits the youth at Covenant House Alaska. Donations will be used in a fish dinner to celebrate Indigenous Peoples' Day.

What you need to know

On August 10-11, 2021 from 7 a.m. - 7 p.m., Covenant House Alaska will be collecting frozen salmon filets, smoked salmon, or berries to use for a fish dinner for the youth in our programs on Indigenous Peoples' Day in October. At any given time, 47% to 53% of our youth are Alaska Native; this is a great opportunity to honor the cultures and traditions as part of a larger day of cultural learning!
