Overview

Mission

Provide assistance (food, clothing, rent, utilities) to people in need. Vincentians, Conference members, meet regularly for reflection and prayer, fellowship, and to build our service. We continually reach out to local community organizations to learn which resources they provide so we can better share them with our friends in need. When our home visit teams meet with families who request our help, we seek to understand each situation. We provide a listening ear to discern how best we can help, and if necessary, refer them to community resources. We pray with the family and thank God for the opportunity to help. Thank you to all our generous benefactors who support our efforts without whom we would not be invited in to help those in dire need in our communities.

What it reported doing in 2024

Provide assistance to 167,143 people in need of housing, medical, food, utilities, and other living expenses.
