Who We Are

We are volunteer members of a worldwide Catholic lay organization whose mission is to end poverty and to serve neighbors facing hardships regardless of their religious affiliation or background. We accept people for who they are, build personal relationships, and tailor our support to each person’s most pressing needs. We serve our clients with respect and without judgement.

Our food pantry is central to reaching our goal that nobody in our community should face hunger or food insecurity. We provide short-term financial emergency assistance to help clients back to self-sufficiency after a setback. We enable clients to make lasting changes by offering scholarships to adults for job training and career advancement. We provide information about other resources and connect our clients to local organizations that can offer further help.

The essential elements of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul are spirituality, friendship, and service. We aspire to live the gospel message and to grow spiritually by serving Christ in our neighbors in need with love, respect, hope, and joy, and by working to shape a more just and compassionate society.
