If You Talk the Talk, You Need to Walk the Walk! - Thursday, March 06, 2008For nearly two centuries, the poor and needy of the world have found a friend in the Society of St. Vincent de Paul. This year, on September 27th, the Society will hold its first annual nationwide Friends of the Poor® Walk. We invite you to participate and become Friends of the Poor®, too. Pledges made on behalf of registered walkers in a given community will benefit those most in need in that same community. Please join us. Walk a mile in someone else’s shoes and find out how good it feels to give. read more ...
