The Saint Vincent de Paul Society was first established at All Saints in 1935. Traditionally the groups work quietly as the main social outreach in the parish.  An ongoing food drive in the All Saints Community provides food distribution to families and individuals in need who are living within the parish borders.  Special baskets are prepared for those in need during the holidays.

SVDP is in need of volunteers for one day a month (1 hour) to deliver food boxes. This would be on a continuous basis, month to month.  The process is very simple and easy.  We need two teams of two people, so family units are very appropriate for these positions.  This is a great way for families to earn Fareshare hours too!
