The Society of St. Vincent de Paul, Council of Los Angeles is part of a worldwide organization of lay Catholic men and women who are committed to live and grow in their Christian faith through prayer and personal involvement in charitable works. The Society's mission is accomplished through parish and community-based groups called Conferences and programs called Special Works. The Society's work includes any actions that promote the dignity of the person and alleviate suffering and distress, while correcting the conditions that cause them.
Who We Are
The Society of St. Vincent de Paul helps our underserved and vulnerable communities become self-sufficient by providing financial and emotional support, food, clothing, furniture, appliances, and critical resources in Los Angeles, Ventura, and Santa Barbara Counties. These resources are delivered via a diverse array of volunteers in a hallmark of the Society, home visits, interpersonal connections, and one-one-one meetings. We also own and operate the largest Thrift Store in Los Angeles.
