St Vincent de Paul, Bryanston

The Society of St Vincent de Paul was formed in Paris in 1833 by Frederick Ozanam, a student at the University of Paris. The society grew rapidly, but the friends soon realised that actions speak louder than words and began to distribute firewood to the poor in winter, and later food. Visiting the poor in their homes was an essential part of the work of the conference. SSVP IS A REGISTERED PUBLIC BENEFIT ORGANISATION - NPO 003/193 - DONATIONS ARE TAX DEDUCTIBLE.

Another Special Thanks...

The Saturday morning craft classes at Bona Lesedi in Dieplsoot have been progressing well since its inception. Here the ladies pose with their newly acquired sewing machine which was donated by a generous donor from Bryanston Parish.

We would also like to thank the anonymous donor who knitted wonderful, warm baby clothes and blankets. These were distributed to the babies we visit in Diepsloot.
