St. Vinnie’s donation truck at St. Matthew’s Episcopal Church this Sunday the 25th

Posted on June 23, 2023 by Gary Haliski

From St.Vincent de Paul Society:

This Sunday, June 25th, a St. Vinnie’s Truck will be parked at St. Matthew’s Episcopal Church (4110 River Rd.) collecting donations of clothing, small appliances, and small household items.

Donations support the work of St. Vincent de Paul in providing emergency services and affordable housing to the community.

St. Matthew’s invites local neighbors to join them in supporting the work by bringing your donations to the truck in their parking lot between 10 am and Noon. 

We ask that you please wait until 10 am to allow their church members to complete their worship service before traffic builds up in the parking lot.

If you have large pieces of furniture or large loads of donations, please schedule a free pickup by calling 541-345-0595.

For more information on donating items, click here.

Thank you for your support!

Santa Clara Community Foundation Garden Party Fundraising Event

If you plan to attend, please RSVP.

Come join the fun as we continue to raise money for our various neighborhood community projects. There will be food & drink, music, activities, a silent auction, door prizes, tabling opportunities for local artisans, and lots of community engagement. But, remember it’s a fundraiser so be prepared to support the Foundation’s local projects—ongoing, and in the works. Like the “old schoolhouse” community center, and the Hileman Landing Park rehabilitation projects.

The Garden Party will be hosted by Tim & Deneen Foelker at their properties in north Santa Clara off E. Beacon Drive.

If you’re a “Foundation Friend” volunteer (or want to become one), and want to assist at the party please call 541-689-8897, or visit the event RSVP page. 

If you have offers of items or services for the Silent Auction or Door Prizes please give Tim a call at 541-689-8897.

Visit https://santaclaracommunityfoundation.org to RSVP for this benefit event. Hope to see you there.
