Annual Drives

Vincentians pool their energies to promote the following annual efforts for food, clothing, and gift baskets for children.

Coats

Vincentians solicit coats (all kinds and sizes) for men, women, and children helped by St. Vincent Church. 

Chairperson: Ann Brueckner

Gift Baskets

Twice per year Vincentians make gift bags for children (ages from 6 months to 19 years) who make long bus trips to visit a parent who is incarcerated.  The bags are labeled for each child and items included are age appropriate ranging from coloring books to novels.  

Chairpersons: Lennis Bange, Barbara Klocke  & Shirley Francis

Paper Goods

Volunteers sponsor a paper goods drive to collect paper towels, Kleenex and toilet paper for those we assist at Christmas.

Chairpersons: Ran & Sue Klotz

Thanksgiving

Members collect donated can goods and cash brought to Mass before Thanksgiving.  Donations are used for needy parishioners.

Chairperson: Tom Knese
