Our meeting on October 5th
Maureen Mazzacane, the Spiritual Director of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul in Vero Beach, was our featured speaker. Our local St. Vincent de Paul was started by 5 men in 1939, meeting at St. Helen School. The first year they served 400 families with a budget of $500, so the donations were mostly of time. In 1942 the organization lapsed and was reorganized in 1957. The first Thrift Store was opened in 1962 to have a constant revenue stream and has been in its current location since 1976. At this point, women became most of the volunteers.
Several of our members shopped at the Thrift Store and modeled their fabulous finds! -
