Ongoing at St. Vincent de Paul

Home Visits:This past month our home visit team assisted six families with rental, utility, and car payment assistance.

Free Food Giveaway: On Saturday August 10th, we hosted our free food giveaway where we had 150 cars and provided food to approximately 250 families. Families received chicken, milk, bread, potatoes, apples, onions, carrots along with amazing produce from Untiedt’s Family Farm including corn, cucumbers, green and red peppers.

Food Donation Baskets: Located at the north and south entrance. We are always in need of dry and canned goods. Please check the expiration dates on your items before donating as we cannot hand out expired items.
