St. Thomas the Apostle Parish has a tradition of dedicating a second collection for SVDP the fifth Sunday of every month with five Sundays (four times/year). This special collection enables us to satisfy outreach to all our neighbors in need of special assistance. This special assistance may include rent, food, gas, medication, utilities, furniture and transportation repair.

Periodically, the St. Vincent dePaul truck will be in the back southeast corner of the parking lot.

Donations of clothing, household goods, etc. are necessary in order to help the poor and needy. Proceeds from donated items sold at the thrift stores are used to support programs that assist with rent, utilities, food, etc. 

Bring your clothing, books, small appliances toys, golf clubs, tennis rackets and more you wish to donate.
