Happy New Year to you and your family!

As 2022 ends we want to take a moment to reflect on the past year. We're thankful for the support of our donors and customers. We wouldn't be here without you.

Thanks to your donations we're able to help individuals and families in need through our Voucher Program.

Sales in our Stores allow us to help others, too.

Here's to another great year! If you have any questions please contact us. We're always happy to help.

Sincerely,

Your friends with the St. Vincent de Paul Orlando Thrift Stores

A Christmas Story!

Cheryl was surprised to find her granddaughter would be visiting her for Christmas. With little time and money tight she was having no luck finding a affordable tree, until she came into the St. Vincent de Paul Orlando Thrift Store.

We gifted her the Christmas tree we had used during Santa's visit.

Cheryl felt so blessed and thanked us for being a light of hope during the holidays.

SVDP Orlando's Staff and Volunteers bring holiday cheer during our 9th Annual Santa Visit to the Thrift Stores.

Special thanks to our Angel Donor Linda for providing new bike for tykes! Thank you so much for helping us help others!

Happy boys and girls came out to see Santa and each received a toy.

Melissa and Basil from our SVDP Clermont Team are decked out and decking the halls! Stop in and share the spirit with us!

Treasure to find at SVDP Orlando Thrift Stores!

"This nutcracker plate I found at SVDP Thrift inspired me to make a large nutcracker. I became a frequent patron of the Store, searching for something I could cut down to make his coat and shoes. The jacket I found was red corduroy with black trim. Perfect!! I looked for weeks before I found the child's crocs. Perfect!! The rest came from my craft stash. The head is a Crisco can and his hands are stuffed socks. He makes me smile and that makes me happy. My SVDP Store is always neat and clean. I usually find something I can use or repurpose and at the same time help a worthy cause. SVDP Thrift is my "go to" shop when I am making costumes for my daughter's plays. There are such nice helpful folks working there."
