Providing Help & Creating Hope
Since 1941 in Northern Nevada
Together, the eight human service programs of Catholic Community Services of Northern Nevada provide half a million services in our community each year.
At St. Vincent's Dining Room (above), one of our eight programs, we serve a nutritious meal daily to 500-600 people, Monday-Saturday.
During the holidays, we have these special activities planned:
Thanksgiving & Christmas 2009 - Thanksgiving and Christmas are both very special days at the Dining Room and extremely popular days to volunteer. No additional vounteers are needed to help serve at this time, but if you are interested in long-term volunteer opportunities at the St. Vincent's Center,
please click here or check out our Volunteer page on
this website.
Holiday Meals for Hungry Families - St. Vincent's Food Pantry will distribute donated turkeys & hams with all the trimmings to pre-registered families on December 4. Donated food items for this event can be brought to the Pantry before Dec. 3. Please click here for details.
Operation Stocking Stuffer 2009 - We hope to collect more than 700 stuffed Christmas stockings again for our 5th Annual Operation Stocking Stuffer even, benefiting children pre-registered by our Emergency Assistance Program. Donations must be received by Dec. 17 at the St. Vincent's Center. Please click here for more information or contact Sandy Isham at 322-7073, ext. 224 or sisham@ccsnn.org.
