Through the efforts of the Consulate General of Argentina, the trio performed at no cost to SVdP Atlanta. They were in the United States on a concert tour and to do a TV special and offered to support the works of SVdP Atlanta by performing at this event. The members of the group, and the Consul General of Argentina here in Atlanta were very familiar with the works of St. Vincent de Paul as a result of the work done by the Society in Argentina.
A wonderful evening was had by all and much needed funds were raised to help support people in need in Georgia. In addition, each concert goer was asked to bring an item of non-perishable food to help stock our food pantries.
We thank everyone associated with this wonderful evening and pictures will be posted on our website www.svdpatl.org soon.
