There’s one line we won’t forget this Christmas:
“SVdP did not have to turn a single family away.”
That’s what the Society of St. Vincent de Paul shared with us after the 2025 Giving Tree Program—and it says everything. It means parents under pressure got to breathe a little easier. It means kids will wake up to a Christmas morning filled with warmth, dignity, and joy.
At Imperial Service Systems, we believe service is simple: show up when it matters. In our work, that means responding when things can’t wait. During the holidays, it means helping our community meet real needs—right on time.
SVdP will be distributing carefully selected items like toys, coats, blankets, and bedding, prepared with care and respect by their volunteers.
Special thanks to Dan Donofrio, Branch Manager at our Ohio office, for helping make this possible and representing Imperial Service Systems with the kind of leadership that shows up for the community.
To SVdP: thank you for what you do, and for the reminder that the best impact is often captured in one sentence.
Not one family turned away.
