A spiritually based group of volunteers, inspired by the Christian values of charity and compassion for all.  SVDP provides food, clothing, shelter and other forms of financial assistance to people in need. Our members interact personally with their clients and make home visits to assess individual needs.  Our funding comes from the generosity of our pastor and parishioners.  SVDP conducts several drives throughout the year to solicit specific donations from our parishioners to benefit the needy within the Camas-Washougal community.  Members meet formally once a month.  For further information or to refer someone you know in need, please call the SVDP message line at  834-2126 ext. 251.
