This summer our St. Vincent de Paul Committee is providing two opportunities to help others. Everyone at Ss. John and Paul is invited to participate!
As you are traveling this summer, save those small toiletry items you collect from your hotel rooms. In August St. Vincent de Paul will have baskets out to collect them for homeless folks temporarily staying at Central Iowa Shelter and Services.
Don’t throw your SEP gear away! If you have SE Polk clothing that your kids have outgrown, St. Vincent de Paul will be collecting the items for kids at Altoona Elementary School.
Look for bins for both collections in the gathering space the weekends of August 21-22 and August 28-29.
