Local TV stations spread the word about SVdP during the COVID-19 Emergency
 
The Society of St. Vincent de Paul, Southwest Texas, held a news conference on Friday, March 20, to let the public know we are open during the coronavirus crisis to help our brothers and sisters in Christ. The news conference took place at our Resurrection of the Lord Conference. Approximately 20 of our conference locations are open around San Antonio to help with food, rent and utility assistance. They will remain open as long as our volunteers have protective gloves and disinfectants to meet our strict safety standards. SVdP welcomes any donations of these supplies along with monetary donations to continue meeting helping people including those now out of work because of COVID-19 closures.
