Leo Club SVG hosts dinner for homeless

On Saturday, October 15, in commemoration of World Food Day, the Leo Club St Vincent hosted its first ever dinner for the homeless in Heritage Square.

It was a twist on one of the club’s signature projects, where a hot breakfast is served monthly to those in need. Homeless persons in Kingstown were invited to sit and enjoy a full meal.{{more}}
