"I WAS HUNGRY AND YOU GAVE ME FOOD..."

With the help of the Church Emergency Center and the St. Vincent de Paul Society, CUP provides emergency food baskets to families

Families become in need of food for several reasons:

  • Loss of income
  • Devastating fires
  • Death in the family
  • Prolonged illness

    CUP serves several thousand people a year with food orders.

    A daily hot meal is provided by the Bishop Cosgrove's Kitchen located in the St. Vincent de Paul Store in East St. Louis.

    Food Collections throughout the Diocese are a main source of food for CUP's pantry.
