We wanted to give a special shout-out to the Dallas Sigma Theta Sorority (Southwest Dallas County Alumnae Chapter) for all the support they've given the St. Vincent Center! In addition to the generous funds they donate every quarter, they also dedicate time for community service. Most recently, they prepared care packages for our seniors who receive food via the PAN (People and Nutrition) Program. Community partners like the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority makes it possible to serve our neighbors in need. To learn more about our initiatives at the St. Vincent Center, visit https://lnkd.in/gTf-rTMM

Earlier this week, we celebrated the Feast of the Annunciation, where the Angel Gabriel announced to Mary that she was going to be the mother of Jesus. Although she didn't understand, she still said "yes." Today, He is inviting us to be the hands, the feet, the Face of Christ, especially to those in most need. Are we ready to say "yes"? #SVDP #Catholic #FeastOfTheAnnunciation #SayYes #SpiritualReflection

Amid inflation and a rising cost of living, programs like PAN (People and Nutrition) Day provide nutritious food to our neighbors, as well as support, resources, and community to those who would otherwise not have access. At our last PAN Day, our staff handed out brochures with information about our Mini Loan Program (MLP), which provides a variety of services to help our neighbors learn critical financial skills. Programs like PAN Day, the St. Vincent Center, and MLP provide vital support for our neighbors in need.

As we celebrate the Feast of the Annunciation, let us remember the power of Mary's "yes." In doing so, she humbled herself before God, accepting His Will, even when she didn't understand. By trusting in God's plan, she helped to bring the Child Jesus into the world, which paved the way for His Salvation. Imagine what God could do with one "yes." May we have Mary's courage to accept His Will in our own lives. #SVDP #FeastOfTheAnnunciation #TrustInGod #CatholicFaith #GodsPlan

SVdP National President John Berry Statement on US Department of Agriculture Cuts The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) sudden decision to eliminate $1.5 billion in food purchase programs for schools and food banks is a troubling step backward for our country. This move directly harms families and individuals, especially at a time when food prices remain high and food insecurity is rising. While we recognize the Administration’s authority to address wasteful government spending, these programs were anything but wasteful. A review may be reasonable, but total elimination is devastating. These initiatives put food on dining tables, ensured low-income children were fed, and kept food pantry shelves stocked for those in need — across both red and blue states, alike. The elimination of the Emergency Food Assistance Program, the Local Food Purchase Assistance Cooperative Agreement Program, and the Local Food for Schools Cooperative Agreement Program will create a massive gap that nonprofit organizations on the front lines of the nation’s food insecurity crisis cannot possibly fill. Some may argue that these programs — initially launched in response to the COVID-19 pandemic — are no longer necessary. However, food insecurity has not recovered from the economic shocks of 2020 – 21 and the ongoing impacts of inflation on working American families. In fact, the problem continues to worsen, leaving more people struggling to access the food they need. The USDA’s own data paints a stark picture of the nation’s food insecurity crisis. From 2020 to 2024, the all-food Consumer Price Index rose by 23.6% — a reality all too familiar to families struggling to put food on the table. In 2023, more than 18 million households were classified as food insecure, according to the latest USDA Household Food Security Report. This represented 13.5% of U.S. households, a sharp increase from 12.8% in 2022 and 10.2% in 2021. At the Society of St. Vincent de Paul USA (SVdP), we have deep expertise in addressing food insecurity and the way it can lead to homelessness. Ranked by Forbes magazine as the 59th largest nonprofit in the U.S. as ranked by Forbes Magazine, we provided $1.7 billion in services last year to more than five million people. As a leader in the fight to prevent homelessness and to care for our most vulnerable populations, we urge the USDA to convene a gathering of organizations to provide our perspective and to seek solutions that work to keep people fed. We come with open minds, compassionate hearts and a commitment to collaboration to seek solutions, and we trust the USDA will act in similar good faith to alleviate the suffering of those living on the margins.
