Vincentian Service Day, May 5, 2012

Don't miss the fun when more than 1,200 DePaul volunteers join forces with nearly 100 community partners across Chicago on Saturday, May 5th for Vincentian Service Day 2012.

All DePaul students, faculty, staff, alumni, retirees and friends are welcome to participate. Registration is now open for individuals at www.serviceday.depaul.edu but hurry as space is limited.

This year we also encourage participants to contribute to the St. Vincent de Paul parish's Seton Sandwich Kitchen. The Seton Sandwich Kitchen serves approximately 125 poor and homeless guests each morning, Monday through Saturday, serving over 28,000 sandwiches, 31,000 cups of coffee, and about 1,000 special holiday meals throughout the year. Beyond a morning meal, the Kitchen provides a safe and hospitable environment for guests to find refuge and community.

Make a difference by contributing funds to the Seton Sandwich Kitchen collection table, on the morning of the event, ensuring warm meals throughout the year for our guests in need.

For questions, to register a group, or to suggest a community partner that could benefit from DePaul volunteers, please contact Ruben Alvarez Silva at RSILVAAL@DEPAUL.EDU or (773) 325-1193.

Sincerely, University Ministry Vincentian Community Service Office
