Another HUGE success with the ABC15 Water Drive!

Check out all the partners who donated alongside our community to collect 1.4M bottles of water with ABC15, Bashas' and Food City

A whopping total of 1.4 million bottles of water has streamed into St. Vincent de Paul thanks to the hugely successful ABC15 Water Drive in partnership with with Arizona 61, Bashas' and Food City this 2024!

Those bottles arrived right at the peak of need as SVdP provides 6,500 bottles of water daily and 45,000 bottles every week, totaling 6,000 gallons weekly to those in need during the summer months.

Final numbers for water drive

"Let this be proof that when our community comes together, we can achieve great things," said Shannon Clancy, SVdP's Rob & Melani Walton Endowed CEO. "The water we gathered together through our community's support is more than just water; it's a life-saving resource for those in need. Thank you to everyone who supported our water drive this summer. Your contributions have made a significant impact on many lives."

St. Vincent de Paul is overjoyed and deeply grateful for the success of this year's ABC15 Water Drive. The community came together to care for its most vulnerable neighbors, ensuring that people living in Arizona's triple-digit temperatures have the water they need to survive.
