SVDP's inaugural "Friends of the Poor Walk" - September 29

News of the Diocese

September 6, 2012

The Society of St. Vincent de Paul Cleveland (SVDP) will host its First Annual "Friends of the Poor Walk" at the Cleveland Metropark's Brookside Reservation on Saturday, September 29, 2012, from 10:30 a.m. to noon.  The fundraiser will generate dollars to meet the increasing demand for food and other emergency relief services to the poor in Northeast Ohio.

In order to make the event successful for those individuals interested in walking or those wishing to sponsor a walker, we request your help in getting the word out to people within your local parish community.

The walk is free and fun for all ages.  The walk is an ideal way for students to earn service hours.  Parishioners could use the walk as a way to ban together to help the many needy individuals and families in our region.  All monies raised will directly benefit Northeast Ohio's low-income persons.  Individuals can even designate funds to a specific parish based SVDP conference.

For more information, please contact John Litten, Executive Director, Society of St. Vincent de Paul - Diocese of Cleveland at jlitten@dioceseofcleveland.org or call him at 216-696-6525, ext. 3570.
