The Evansville franchise of TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® received a thank you letter from the Evansville District Council Society of St. Vincent de Paul for their donation to the third annual Friends of the Poor Walk.
Dear Dave, Desiree and Friends at Two Men and a Truck:
Thank you so much for your wonderfully generous donation of $250.00 to our Third Annual "Friends of the Poor" Walk which we are holding October 2, 2010. That donation is a tremendous help in putting on our walk- and that walk is extremely helpful in the overall operation of the St. Vincent Food Pantry, Thrift Store and in the work of our 26 parish-based conferences.
Right now the demand at our food pantry remains at its highest ever, as we continue to serve over 1,200 families each month. Our thrift store continues to serve the need of people in inner-city Evansville with basic clothing, furniture and appliances at our highest level ever. With the current economic climate, our 26 conferences continue to receive large numbers of calls from those who face utility shut-offs, evictions and who are unable to obtain basic medications.
There are a large number of Evansville parish members volunteering to be a part of the St. Vincent effort. This keeps our overhead low, and your donation makes it possible for these volunteers to bring a good deal of tangible help to those who really need it.
Thank you again for your generous help!
Daniel Miller
President
