It can still take just one small problem to tip a family into a crisis. Cork St Vincent de Paul want to emphasise that they are here primarily to help people over a short term hard time and sometimes that is sufficient to ensure that they don’t slip into long term poverty.
The SVP Annual Car Draw is one of the charity’s most important fund raising initiatives and Cork SVP are delighted with the support of CAB Motor Group, Cork who have again this year donated the first prize of a new Ford Fiesta to assist us in their fund raising efforts.
