NOBLESVILLE’S ST. VINCENT DE PAUL AND ITS RESALE SHOP, NOBLECAUSE, INSPIRE AND SERVE HAMILTON COUNTY By Ria Rebein + Photos by Kyle Williams
A NEW NAME The St. Vincent de Paul Noblesville chapter has two branches — its resale shop and its food pantry. In February, the thrift store became NobleCause, a name inspired by the Noblesville community and the noble cause of relieving hunger in Hamilton County.
“It’s the best-kept secret in Hamilton County, but we wish it wasn’t!” said Clare Scales, vice president of the St. Vincent de Paul chapter on Greenfield Avenue in Noblesville. The St. Vincent de Paul food pantry and its resale shop, NobleCause, have been making an impact on the southeast side of Noblesville for over 35 years. Today, the organization continues to grow thanks to the efforts of committed volunteers and those who see firsthand the support they give the Hamilton County community.
