Car Cruise 2017 at GSLC of Fox Chapel

St. Vincent DePaul Food Bank Donations from the Car Cruise

The 1st Annual Car Cruise (sponsored and organized by the Evangelism Committee) is still getting great reviews. Besides collecting three grocery carts full of food (with an estimated value of $600), we raised $430 in donations for the St. Vincent DePaul Food Bank in Sharpsburg. Thank you again to all our volunteers and attendees!

Here is a note from Barbara George, Director of the St. Vincent DePaul Food Bank, Sharpsburg: Thank you very much for both the food and monetary donations. We appreciate all that you have done for us and look forward to working with you again in the future. – BJ
