A message from St. Vincent dePaul Society:
In the interest of health and safety of our clients and our volunteers, we are temporarily suspending deliveries of furniture and household goods. This suspension also applies to picking up donated items and accepting donated clothing at our church bins.
Please understand, this is in consideration for the safety and health of all whom we serve and of course our volunteers who work hard to help our brothers and sisters in need. We will continue to accept requests for assistance and offers of items for donations and we will prioritize these lists based on greatest need when we resume operations.
Thank you for understanding our decision in these difficult times.
