Two New Opportunities to Help SVdP

Ladies, did you know just cleaning out your clothes can help a family in need? Really!  After you have gone through your closets, you can turn those discarded clothes – that are just like new – into cash to help St. Vincent de Paul help our friends in need.

Two local businesses, Good Steward Consignment and Re-Style Consignment stores in Frisco will take your gently used clothes and turn them into cash to help SVdP help others.  When you bring in your items, just state that you are consigning your clothes for the St. Vincent de Paul Account and the proceeds will come directly to us to help those in need.

Good Steward is located at 6810 Main St., Suite ABC, Frisco,TX 75034, 972-294-5124, web site www.goodsteward.com.  This store sells better brands and designer labels.

Re-Style is located at 8700 W. Main St, Suite 160, Frisco, TX 75034, 214-872-3952, web site www.restylefrisco.com.

Check out these web sites for details regarding your clothes consignments.  Thank you for considering helping St. Vincent de Paul through these two local businesses.

To All SVdP Members who helped with “Bingo For Friends” – THANK YOU!!!

This was our first bingo event and it has proven to be a great success.  We have received great positive response from all the participants and it looks like we will be having this event again next year!   The Fund Raising Committee could not have produced this super “Bingo For Friends” fund raiser without all the tireless help of the faithful SVdP members.  Whether you helped to set up chairs, sweep floors, cooked or served some wonderful snacks, or registered guests; you answered our call with energy and smiles!  We were able to raise over $3000 to help our friends in need.  Next year we will make even more!!!  God bless all of you for your generous hearts and spirits!
