St Vincent De Paul Holy Cross Conference, despite the Covid-19 Emergency, is continuing to provide services to families in need and the homeless. Thank you to “The Parishioners of Holy Cross Church” for your support in the past and in the future. Without you we would be unable to continue to operate during this National Emergency. You may mail your gift to the parish or bring in person to the parish office.  Checks should be made payable to: St. Vincent de Paul.

We are always in need of cereal, jam, jelly, canned chili, Vienna sausages, canned Ravioli, peanut butter, and long crew socks. These items are given out to our homeless year round. Thank you in advance for your donations.

Household items and other clothing can be donated to your closest St. Vincent De Paul Thrift Store or call 602-266-4673 to schedule a pick up of large household items.

St Vincent de Paul needs you!…No experience necessary!!
We’re looking for volunteers to work in our office, pantry, with the homeless or to deliver food to needy families, Monday-Thursday for 2-3 hours in the morning. You can volunteer for one or more days. You don’t need to be Catholic or belong to Holy Cross parish.
Without committing, consider a trial run to help you decide what works best for you. If you want to make deliveries, we always work in teams (husband and wife, parent and teenager 15 yrs and older, friends, or team up with a SVdP volunteer). The only training required is Safe Environmental Training which can be done online. Please prayerfully consider contributing your time to this worthy cause. Call 480-985-4259 if you’re interested or have any questions. Leave a message and we’ll return your call.

 

Please contact Joe Kamal for any of these positions at the Holy Cross SVDP office, Monday through Thursday, 9:00-11:00am
or at 480-985-4259.
