The Society of St. Vincent de Paul invites the Central Florida community to participate in the annual Friends of the Poor Walk on Saturday, October 17, in Winter Springs. This two-mile walk serves as the organization’s primary fundraiser and helps provide emergency assistance to local families facing unexpected financial hardships. As a 100% volunteer-run organization, the Society of St. Vincent de Paul provides support for essential needs such as rent, utilities, food, transportation, and other crisis assistance, with funds raised staying right here in the local community. Families, individuals, businesses, and community members are encouraged to participate and help make a difference for neighbors in need. Registration and event details are available at: https://runsignup.com/Race/FL/WinterSprings/SVdPStStephenConferenceWinterSprings
