This year, SVDP was once again selected as a beneficiary of the Meijer Simply Give program in Macomb Township. With a 21% increase in families served this year, the partnership has been critical in sustaining our food pantry and addressing the growing demand. We are deeply thankful to Meijer and our generous parishioners for helping ensure no one in our community goes hungry.
Lastly, in 2024, SVDP served 43% more families than in 2023, highlighting the expanding need due to inflation and economic challenges. Thanks to the collective efforts of our church community, business partners, and tireless Vincentians, we continue to bring hope and relief to struggling families.
