Volunteers will be on hand during the entire week to serve people who may be in need of emergency supplies to get them through to the end of the month. You can call ahead or just drop in. After registering and showing “proof of need”, such as a list of your income and expenses, you will be provided with the basic necessities for your family. 

Most of the food at St. Vincent de Paul is donated, but some of the perishables and staples are purchased using the proceeds of sales of merchandise in their thrift store. Local residents are invited to drop in weekdays from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. to find some excellent bargains. If you have clothing to drop off, you can bring them directly to St. Vincent de Paul’s and leave them in one of the bins at the side of the building.
