Originally founded in 1992, FITT is celebrating 30 years in 2022 and the celebrations reached a zenith in June, our official birthday month. We packed these few weeks with giveaways, “Random Acts of Kindness”, stories about FITT’s history and community, and capped it all off with a virtual birthday party!
