Food is one of the most requested forms of support at SVdPD. Together, our client choice food pantry and nutrition kitchen will enable visitors to choose the food items they need and enjoy.
This initiative will:
- Reduce food waste
- Offer shelf-stable foods, plus fruits, vegetables, dairy, and meat products
- Distribute recipe cards using items found in the pantry
- Host cooking demonstrations by local chefs on how to prepare healthy meals
- Be open some evenings to accommodate those working during the day
- Better serve our neighbors by promoting dignity and supporting health needs
Reflect

The Chapel of St. Vincent de Paul will:
- Be available to all who need a welcoming space to rekindle their soul
