Local Conferences and the (Archdiocesan Council of New Orleans) hosts the Society of St. Vincent de Paul Friends of the Poor® Walk, which raises funds and awareness for the Society’s work serving people living in poverty. Since 2008, the FOP Walk® has raised more than $27 million for those in need across the country.
Monies raised will go directly to our local conferences who continue our mission to help needy individuals in our community. Last year's event raised a little of 6500.00 for our servant leaders and the work they do in the community!
