St. Vincent de Paul Drive for June

 

The following is taken from a recent letter from the Program Director of the SVDP Help Desk.

 

  “At this time I would like to thank ALL of you for your help and support

    with the Vincentian Help desk. We have completed our first year at our

    new location.

 

   As I have reported before our household program has doubled due to

   the fact that the VA has approved housing for many of our homeless 

   Vets, and others who are also finally receiving housing after waiting

   on a list for years.

 

   We are in desperate need of pots, pans, towels, full and twin sheet

   sets, blankets all sizes, silverware and cooking utensil, small plastic

   containers”.

 

   We will be collecting any of those items on all of the Sundays in June.

 

    We request NEW items only.

 

Thank you for your continued, generous support of the St. Vincent de Paul Society.
