Thank you so much for your donation to help struggling families.
Today, a mother will feel relief because of you.
As she opens the envelope she's been hoping for, she looks up and breathes a sigh of relief.
Thanks to your generous gift, sorely-needed vouchers have arrived. I wholeheartedly thank you for your generosity during this time of increased worry for so many families.
For nearly two centuries, caring individuals like you have upheld the proud SVP tradition of helping those in great hardship.
This winter, SVP receives an average of 100 requests for help every hour. We can only meet these requests because of selfless donations like yours.
Thank you for every moment of mercy you bring.
