Set to serve 5,000 Christmas Day meals
This Christmas, St. Vincent de Paul is stepping up to spread hope and holiday cheer by distributing 5,000 hot meals to low-income families and individuals experiencing homelessness across the Valley, ensuring everyone has a place to feel cared for and included this holiday.
Guests will enjoy glazed ham, mashed potatoes, green beans, dinner rolls, and pie for dessert.
Right now, many low-income families are facing tough financial realities that make the joy of Christmas feel out of reach,” said Director of Food Services Adam Young “A simple holiday meal can lift spirits and remind families and individuals that their community cares about them, especially during a season that can be emotionally and financially difficult.
If you or someone you know needs a Christmas meal, please join us! All are welcome.
