Overview

Mission

The organization leads women and men to join together to grow spiritually by offering person-to-person service to those who are needy and suffering in the tradition of its founder, Blessed Frederic Ozanam, and patron, St. Vincent de Paul.

What it reported doing in 2016

We continue to acquire donated, contributed goods to distribute as needed among the poor or to sell at minimum prices. The profits are used to carry out the purposes of the society as set out in the incorporation papers.These profits are spent in the best interest of the needy, indigent, and the less fortunate. As needed, we lease apartments and other modes of shelter for short periods of time to house the homeless, the evicted, etc. All members are non-paid volunteers.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 100% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
