The St. Vincent de Paul Society is a lay Catholic organization which ministers to those who are without the resources to establish a home for themselves and / or their families. Among those served by the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul are those who have fallen between the cracks in society. Some are not eligible for exiting social programs or these resources may ave been exhausted leaving many of our Friends nowhere to turn but to the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul for basic necessities. The Society can offer food, household items or sometimes a sympathetic ear. Need is determined through a process of visiting our less fortunate friends in their homes to assess how best to help.
