Be part of a Noble Cause

I was hungry and you gave me food

On August 13, THE REPORTER posted that St. Vincent de Paul, an organization supported in part by Our Lady of Grace Catholic ministries, is teaming up with Noblesville Meijer to help boost the local food pantry that serves Hamilton County families. Now through Oct. 2, add a “Simply Give” $10 donation card to your Meijer’s order when you complete your purchase a the Noblesville Meijer. All $10 donations made by customers will be directed to the Noblesville St. Vincent de Paul Food Pantry. Your receipt can be used for charitable tax purposes.

Every $10 donation becomes $30 on Sat. Aug 28

Shop on Saturday, Aug. 28, and get a $10 SIMPLY GIVE card and Meijer will “double match” every donation. That’s triple or $30 that goes to the St. Vincent de Paul, also called NobleCause, located at 1391 Greenfield Avenue, across the street from Stony Creek Elementary. 

During the Pandemic, St. Vincent de Paul has successfully converted its Food Pantry into a drive-thru experience. Last year more than 31,000 individuals received food and other assistance. Learn more about how to be involved in this  “NobleCause”. For information about  hours of operation, how to make other donations and volunteer or get assistance, visit svdpnoblecause.com.

Catholic Social Teaching - Protecting Human Life and Dignity—The Right to Food

Our Catholic Social Teachings proclaim the central truth that every human person is sacred and has a right to life. That means enough food to sustain a life with dignity. When poverty and hunger diminish the lives of individuals and families in our community, we can selflessly act to make a difference in the lives of our neighbors. This appeal for St. Vincent de Paul is an opportunity worth getting behind. It’s a “Noble Cause.”  

The OLG Justice and Charity Council (JCC) provides support, consultation, and assistance to the Pastor, Parish staff, and our ministries to encourage charitable outreach, advocacy, justice, and Christian service. We’re here to help connect you with social ministries where you can put your talents and in-kind donations to work. To take a more active role in JCC, please consider participating in one of our monthly meetings, currently done as Zoom calls. To learn about other opportunities, email justiceandcharity@ologn.org.
