The annual St. Vincent de Paul Thanksgiving Food Drive is underway! Your generosity makes it possible for struggling families in our community to enjoy a happy and hearty Thanksgiving meal.
If you didn't get a bag last weekend, Vincentians will be at all Masses this upcoming weekend (Nov. 8-9) to pass them out.
Please bring your filled bags back to the History Room at the entrance of the Church by the final deadline of Tuesday, November 11. This gives our team time to prepare for the distribution on Saturday, November 15.
Suggested items include: gravy, soups, canned corn, canned green beans, canned meats (e.g., spaghetti, raviolis, chicken), peanut butter, instant mashed potatoes, canned sweet potatoes/yams, macaroni & cheese, jelly/jello, canned beans, low-sugar cereal, cake mixes, crackers, candy, cookies, hygiene items, and grocery gift cards.
Need Assistance? If you or someone you know could benefit from SVDP’s food distribution, please call the SVDP HOTLINE at (510) 352-6079 and leave a message. A Vincentian will return your call to assist.
