Service Opportunity
The Society of St. Vincent de Paul Southwest Texas invites all ACP students, faculty, and our school community to take part in an exciting event that supports neighbors in need.
The Society of St. Vincent de Paul is a volunteer-led organization dedicated to feeding, housing, clothing, and advocating for those in our community. Each year, they provide more than $10 million in assistance to neighbors in need—and they do it with the support of just one major fundraising event: the annual Run for Thy Neighbor 5K Walk & Run!
When: Saturday, September 27, 2025
Where: The Greenline at Brooks
This 5K brings together families, schools, and community members for a day of fitness, fun, and compassion. Proceeds from the run will directly support the mission of serving those in need.
Two great ways to get involved:
Volunteer: Students, faculty, and staff can sign up as volunteers (spirit shirts encouraged—there will be media coverage on site!).
Volunteer sign-up: svdpsa.org/5k-run
Spread the word: For 153 years, SVdP Southwest Texas has served humbly. By sharing this event, you help expand their mission of charity and invite others to walk or run with them.
Let’s show our Apache spirit by supporting this wonderful cause!
