Welcome to the Society of St. Vincent de Paul of Salem Mid-Willamette Valley. St. Vincent de Paul has been actively striving to understand and fulfill the needs of the poor within Salem and the surrounding community since 1957.
We are here to aid the most vulnerable members of our community. Through our various programs, we reach out to those in need.
At St. Vincent de Paul, our goal is to deal with the initial emergency, then shepherd individuals into programs that can bring lasting change into their lives. Donations made locally are used and shared locally.
"Neighbors helping Neighbors"
That's what the Society of St. Vincent de Paul is all about - caring people helping their neighbors in need of the most basic necessities - food, shelter, clothing, transportation and emotional comfort. There are heartbreaking cirumstances right here in our own community, but practical, compassionate person-to-person caring can make a world of difference.
A priceless, practical gift - the hope that comes with help..
For some families, a crisis - whether job loss, illness, accident, or divorce, have caused them worry about putting food on the table and keeping a roof over their heads. They turn to St. Vincent de Paul for help. Please, help us help them!
