Drive-by Irish Miracle set for this weekend

Another pandemic-modified Irish Miracle is planned this weekend.

The 38th annual event will be held online and in-person this year.

Monetary donations can be made online or you can participate in the drive-by non-perishable food collection event on Saturday.

St. Patrick's High School students will receive donations in the school parking lot, off of The Rapids Parkway, Saturday from 9 a.m. until noon.

All of the donations will be loaded up and delivered to the St. Vincent de Paul Society.

Before the pandemic, hundreds of students and staff canvassed the city collecting thousands of bags of food each year.
