Join our team for the 2026 Friends of the Poor Walk on Saturday, September 26, 2026 at Heckscher State Park!

The Society of St. Vincent de Paul Maria Regina Conference invites you to join us for the 2026 annual Friends of the Poor Walk or make a donation to help us reach our goals. The 5K walk path stretches through the beautiful waterfront scenery of Heckscher State Park, making this a fun and meaningful event for friends and families of all ages.

The Society helps all people regardless of their race, religion, or background. “No work of charity is foreign to the Society.” “Need, not creed” determines who is helped, and how. All funds raised will provide our Maria Regina STVDP volunteers with the resources they need to help fellow Long Islanders in need.

Don't forget to screenshot or print your parking pass at the end of the registration. If you have an Empire pass please use that instead.

If you ONLY want to DONATE, click on Donate Today.  Don't for get to choose our Parish Maria Regina.  The $20 registration fee is not a donation, only $5 goes back to the Maria Regina Conference of St. Vincent de Paul.
