The St Vincent de Paul Society (Vinnies) Victoria is a charitable organisation that offers a hand-up to people in need.

We provide assistance through our 12,000+ strong network of members and volunteers who support people whose daily struggles can include putting food on the table, keeping the lights on and ensuring their children remain at school and obtain an education.

We do this through our core work around cost of living, education, food insecurity and homelessness. These core services are supported financially by our social enterprise, Vinnies Shops and the generous support of our donors. Vinnies Victoria is proudly 99% self-funded, receiving only 1% government funding. 

Vinnies Victoria are committed to shaping a more compassionate society.
