CHRISTMAS SPONSORS NEEDED 
For more than 25 years St. Kevin’s Parish Food Bank has been helping needy families with food hampers not only at Christmas time but all year through.

At Christmas time the Food Bank also helps by finding sponsors to help needy families who are struggling to provide gifts for their children.  Last year we received 21 sponsors who helped over 30 children.  

This year the requests for help is much higher due to the increase in the cost of living.  If anyone (individual, family or business) would like to help by sponsoring a family, a child or even just one gift,  please call the Parish Office for more details.
