Can you help?
Your gift to St. Susan Center will help
provide a nutritional meal to those in our community who enjoy far
too few of them.
In 2008, St. Susan Center served 135,761 meals. That’s nearly 30,000
more meals than were needed in 2007. The need we have met over the
past six years, in fact, has more than doubled, increasing by 128%.
That increase is likely to continue, as our current economic condition
causes more and more individuals and families to seek help wherever
they can find it. Can you help?
All gifts, including those made in honor or in memory of a special
person or event, are welcome and are acknowledged appropriately.

Current Wish List
St. Susan Center benefits most from monetary
contributions, because the soup kitchen has greater buying power
than most consumers, through the Food Bank of WNY. However, if you
would like to have a food drive to benefit the Center, please consider
asking for contributions of the items needed most.
Currently, they are:
- Fresh Fruit & Veggies
- Good sources of calcium (milk, yogurt, cheese)
- Healthy snacks (nuts, dried fruit, fruit, granola)
Non-food gifts may also be given in honor or in memory of a special
person or event. |

In
response to the gospel to provide food,
fellowship, dignity and respect to all who come
through our doors. |
Good nutrition is as challenging
as making a part-time wage cover the cost of living
plus medical expenses, as complicated as graduating
from high school while caring for an infant, as
difficult as finding work when you are unable to
read a job application.
For our neighbors who face these and other challenges,
St Susan Center provides a nutritional lunchtime
meal every day.

St. Susan Center is more than a place
for the economically disadvantaged. The
Center also serves as a safe haven for
the physically, mentally and emotionally
challenged individuals in our community
who feel isolated. Increasing health
care costs, limited availability of
specialized housing and the fact that
people are living longer all add
significantly to the number of
individuals forced to make unhealthy,
even life-threatening choices. St. Susan
Center is a place where respect is
served with each meal and every guest is
an important part of our community.
