Everyone is called to be a servant to their neighbors.<br />
That could be as practical as giving someone a bag of<br />
groceries or as compassionate as offering a listening<br />
ear and a warm smile during a time of need.<br />
For 140 years, The Society of <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Vincent</strong> <strong>de</strong> <strong>Paul</strong> has<br />
been a servant to Greater Cincinnati’s needy families.<br />
Answering Christ’s call, we foster hope by providing<br />
spiritual, emotional and material assistance on a<br />
person-to-person basis to the poor, lonely and forgotten<br />
in our community,<br />
regardless of race or<br />
religious affiliation.<br />
With hundreds of<br />
volunteers logging<br />
over 68,000 hours<br />
of service, we per-<br />
sonally connect with those in need throughout our<br />
neighborhoods in Greater Cincinnati and Hamilton<br />
County. Together, we bring hope home.<br />
In <strong>2008</strong>, the Cincinnati Council of<br />
<strong>St</strong>. <strong>Vincent</strong> <strong>de</strong> <strong>Paul</strong> was blessed to receive<br />
the Better Business Bureau’s Torch Award<br />
recognizing workplace ethics.<br />
