I was homeless for years and Ms Deborah and this amazing organization helped with bags of water and snack bags and something hot to eat on Sunday afternoons. When I got blessed with my apartment they got my couch and loveseat as well as cleaning supplies and hygiene when I moved in. I still a year and a half later still talk to her and keep her updated. They helped transform my life.

If there was an option for 10 million stars, Ms. Deb would definitely be worthy of them all and then some. She is out here in the trenches day in and day out serving her community tirelessly and endlessly. Five Fish and Two Loaves is an extremely hardworking organization that selflessly hits these streets to assure that all of the unsheltered needs are met and they don't keep every donation for themselves. Ms. Deb shares with other non-profit organizations to assure that the work of her hands hits all across the DFW metroplex; she also takes from her own funds to do so. She is one of the most humble servants I've ever met who is a constant reminder of God's agape love. Hundreds of people in need are showered weekly with necessities to make it through the week. She has assisted many in getting shelter, and her love and dedication doesn't end there. She makes sure that they have what they need upon moving into their new homes, whether it's food, furniture, appliances, toiletries and so much more. She even assures that they have food to carry them through as they adjust to their new normal. I am so blessed to be connected with such a gem, and I know I can speak for countless organizations and families in need who can all say the same. She is connected to greatness and allows anyone with like minds to connect and serve alongside her. Anything shared with this organization through donations whether financial or material gets distributed to the community at large. She is a woman of honor and integrity who puts others above herself which should not only be commended but supported in every way.

I’ve witnessed the FW Five Loaves and Two Fish non profit feed unsheltered friends week after week, month after month! I’ve witnessed them take gift boxes of food, beverages, clothing, and hygiene products throughout the community. I witnessed them host neighborhood events and partner with numerous other charities to support families. I’ve witnessed them help unsheltered get permanent housing AND furnish their homes with many essential items. They are living, witnesses to the goodness of God as they allow themselves and their organization to support anyone in need. They are definitely a “boots on the ground” ministry that does what it says it’s here to do! #PurposeFilled

I absolutely love this organization the feeds are so vibrant and full of love. Our unsheltered friends are such beautiful spirits and appreciate everything that is given to them and This organization loads them up with food, drinks, toiletries, clothing etc. Ms Deborah bonds with all of them in a special way she’s so personable, humble and overly generous. Her spirit and personality is so infectious. She donates to help other organizations with the same cause. She deserves it all and not for herself she wants it for everyone around her. That to me is what makes her organization stand out. If I bet on any organization it will always be this one❤️

FWFLTF - what an exceptional outreach ministry. I have watched Debrah for years compassionately serve the unsheltered population of Fort Worth. She leads with love, compassion and toughness. She overcomes adversities with a firm trust in God and determined resolve to see the unsheltered provided for. No matter the weather she and her team sacrificially serve, at times at her own expense. Debrah draw from her own personal experiences to serve those who cannot help themselves, that’s what make her good at what she does. Her knowledge and experience is unmatched. An innumerable amount of people have come to find housing under her guidance. She is able to converse on every level, from politicians to other non-profit leaders, to the homeless population that she serves. FWFLTF is a 501c3 organization so all of your donations are tax deductible and safe.

I, along with my ministry MMU, have had the pleasure of partnering with Deborah Nickerson, who is the founder of this awesome nonprofit, and witnessed the help, the love and compassion that she personally shows to those who are in need. Over the years she has truly proven her consistency in being a helping hand to the homeless and a resource to those that need to be reconnected to life!

A woman after God’s own heart is the best way to describe Debrah. She has been an instrumental leader with the Fort Worth Fives Loaves and Two Fish Ministry. This ministry has shown repeated dedication in the community for many years. They have anchored themselves in the heart of Fort Worth’s homeless community and tremendously blessed a multitude of those in need. I had the pleasure of serving with The Fort Worth Five Loaves and Two Fish Ministry for several years. This ministry is truly a blessing to all regardless of their walk of life.

This organization allows the Holy Spirit to guide their path. The compassion and grace they display and provide to the unsheltered community is exceptional. They believe everyone no matter the situation or how they got to become unsheltered deserves dignity and love. Donations are given to the unsheltered and recently sheltered with love and respect. I've seen first hand the smiles and gratitude of those being helped. They trust this organization.

I have had the opportunity to serve with this awesome ministry. This ministry goes above and beyond the call of duty to help those in need. Five Loaves and Two Fishes Ministry feeds the homeless good meals monthly, as well as provide, food, clothing, toys, and love to the community during the holidays. I am blessed to know that there are still good godly people who sacrifice their time talent, and love to help those who cannot help themselves. Please consider donating to help, if you cannot serve.

When I tell you this one of the best nonprofit organizations that I have ever dealt with. The one that is handling the organization love people and make sure that the homeless not just see the love of Christ but she shows the love of Christ. She want people to know that they don't stand alone they are loved and cared for. I appreciate that she goes above and beyond the call of what she has to do. I thank God I got the opportunity to serve the homeless and when this covid-19 is over I look forward to serving again, I pray that others give faithfully because there is truly a need. May God bless this nonprofit organization to thrive, excel, and show the love Christ.

The five loaves and two fish outreach organization goes great lengths to feed the less fortunate in the much needed areas of Ft Worth, Tx. This group provides a variety of fresh homemade meals such as fried fish & fies, a taco bar with all the trimmings, baked or fried chicken with fresh veggies and every meal has a dessert as well. The founder, Debrah Nickerson and her team make sure they have much needed necessities such as clothes, shoes and hygiene products as well. It's not just homeless adults but there are families which includes of children as well. This past Christmas, five loaves are two fish held a toy drive and gifted 361 toys to kids without any grants or special funding. This organization is truly involved in the community by displaying what outreach is really about throughout the DFW metroplex.

I remember the first time Debrah ask me to help feeding, she had just started feeding a month prior to me and my family started helping. It was in the month of November. I had always want a way to give back and when she asked I jumped at the opportunity for my family and myself. It was truly a humbling experience and one that I said that I would always be a part of. Five loaves and Two Fish is one of greatest organizations I truly can say is one of the best Debrah Nickerson is truly a woman that God has sent.
