Dear Lincoln community,
The St. Vincent de Paul Society of Lincoln and Weston just enjoyed our beautiful spring fundraiser concert (more on that below), but there’s no time to rest, as the need in our community is ongoing. The food pantry will be open next Wednesday and Thursday, June 7 and 8, and we need your help to restock our shelves! Now at the beginning of the summer, the most needed items are ketchup, olive oil, salad dressings, mayonnaise, relish, cereal, pasta sauce and crackers.
Small and regular sizes are best so that some people do not get the giant ones and others get the tiny ones. We have limited space and want to be able to give the items to as many people as possible. No need to sign up, but we have put together a SignUp Genius page so we can make sure we get a good number of each of the items needed.
SVdP’s “Grazing in the Grass” concert was a successful and enjoyable event where many people came together to enjoy the beautiful music with each other. With gratitude, SVdP acknowledges the local businesses of Lincoln and Weston for their sponsorship: Donelan’s, Twisted Tree, Something Special, Tack Room, Gretchen Covino’s Pilates, Lana’s Fitness, Weston Provisions, Roche Brothers, and Florentine Framers.
To all the SVdP volunteers: thank you for your selfless time and dedication! And to our supporters: SVdP could not continue our service without you!
Karen Salvucci, SVdP of Lincoln and Weston President
Chris Stirling, Vice President — and SVdP Board of Directors
