The Unveiling of the New Box Truck

Yesterday, we unveiled our new box truck as Fr. Mark Gurtner said a special blessing.

After another vehicle totaled our old truck in April, the St. Vincent de Paul Society lent us an extra truck so our programming could continue throughout the summer. 

Thanks to the generosity of over 60 individuals, we were able to purchase a brand-new truck at the end of September.

The new truck will primarily be used to transport household items for newly resettled refugees. This year, we expect to welcome 300 refugees to the city, which translates to about 80-90 moves.

The truck will also benefit a wide range of Catholic Charities clients in need of material assistance.

On behalf of the people we serve, we are immensely grateful to all the supporters who made this truck possible!
