Cover Me with Love - Society of Saint Vincent de Paul - National Council of Canada

Cover Me with Love

January 6, 2025

The “Cover Me with Love” program continues to thrive in London, Ontario, where it has been serving the community for the past 15 years.

This initiative has supported countless individuals in the downtown area. Recently, the SSVP St. George Conference gathered over 100 coats and blankets, both new and gently used. Additionally, they collected 20 pairs of boots along with numerous hats, coats, mittens, and socks.

These donations were delivered to the Ark Aid Street Mission in London for distribution to individuals experiencing homelessness and living in encampments. The recipients were deeply appreciative, as the mission’s winter wear supplies had been running low.

A heartfelt thanks to St. George Parish for their continued dedication to this vital program.
