Review for St Vincent De Paul Society Inc, Naples, FL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Every day that I volunteer at St. Vincent De Paul Society Council in Naples, Florida I'm amazed at all that gets accomplished with running a Meals On Wheels program that provides 85,000 meals annually, the providing of food on a daily weekday basis to people that walk in, many days 40/50 or more arrive at the Center and they are professionally screened and treated with respect. Besides food they are provided,if needed, with rent assistance,clothing,funiture, and given referrals to other agencies for any other assistance that may be necessary.

Role:  Volunteer & Every Thursday I see those people that are in immediate need and help them with food, clothing, furniture etc.
