The St. Vincent de Paul Vocational Arts Fair Trade Program will provide instruction for members of the community struggling with homelessness, addiction and mental health and are unable to work in mainstream employment. As volunteers create crafts to sell for fair trade, this project will renovate the basement rooms of a local church to create adequate space to run the program.
