The St. Vincent de Paul conference at St. John XXIII Parish is a Catholic lay organization of volunteers serving our neighbors living in Central and South Evanston needing emergency financial or food assistance. We have a pantry of canned, packaged, and frozen meat that is stocked by financial donations and periodic food drives.

Anyone living in Central and South Evanston needing our assistance is invited to call our voicemail line at 847.868.3796. Our voicemail line also can be reached by calling the Parish Office at 847.864.1185 and asking for “St. Vincent DePaul.” Volunteers closely monitor the hotline for voicemail messages and call back as soon as possible.

The City of Evanston also maintains a food assistance page with details about other sources of help in the area.
