St. Vincent de Paul volunteers at Our Lady of Sorrows Parish in Snoqualmie helped 711 local needy with food, clothing, rent, utilities and more in 2010.

These volunteers gave 850 hours of service during the year and used a remarkable 99 percent of contributions for direct aid.

Thank you to all who supported them and our neighbors in need during St. Vincent de Paul’s 90th anniversary year in King County.

Sincerely,

Richard Bray

Director of Donor & Community Relations

St. Vincent de Paul Society of Seattle/King County
