FEEDING AMERICAN HEROES
In both the Spring and Fall St. Vincent de Paul along with several local partners provides food boxes, a variety of cleaning supplies, a hot meal, and other home essentials for our local Veterans. We take these items to the Boise VA hospital and set up a drive-through line to load all food, and supplies directly into the vehicle.

For 47 years, the St. Vincent de Paul Society has sponsored an annual Thanksgiving food box outreach program for those less fortunate. This is a family-to-family act of charity. Your family can share the tradition of Thanksgiving with families in need.
This is an opportunity for you to directly impact a family in need. Please consider helping us provide a Thanksgiving dinner for those who would otherwise be unable to afford one.
Each year, St. Vincent de Paul Southwest Idaho opens the Christmas Toy Store to families in need who cannot afford to purchase Christmas Gifts for their children. In partnership with local school counselors in Ada and Canyon County, we provide gifts at no out-of-pocket cost to families with children ages 0-18 to shop at our Christmas Toy Store.
