Saint Joseph Roman Catholic Parish recently issued the following announcement.

There has been a substantial grant established to help individuals and families whose income has been adversely impacted by COVID19. This grant program is named “Phoenix Cares”

Our local Society of St Vincent de Paul Conference – which operates from our parish – is helping to communicate the eligibility requirements for this grant, send the needed forms, and provide guidance on completing and submitting the forms.

Families may receive up to $2,000 through the grant program. This breaks down into $1,100 in rent assistance and another $300 for each of their utility, gas and water bills.

If you know of a Phoenix resident who may be eligible, please send an email request to: svdp.stjoseph.phx@gmail.com

In your email, please include your name, address, and phone number. If you forget the email address, call the parish office at 602-996-5120 or our local St Vincent de Paul Conference at 602-569-2729 (Option 2) and request the email address that will be used to start the “Phoenix Cares” application process.
