Two things to know
You need to live in St. Ann’s Parish
The St. Vincent de Paul Society is organized by parish. Our volunteers look after the people who live in St. Ann’s neighbourhood, and other Catholic parishes care for the people who live near them. This way help is shared fairly and no part of the city is forgotten.
Check the map to see if your home is inside our parish.
If you live outside our boundaries, please call the Catholic parish nearest your home. Many parishes have their own St. Vincent de Paul volunteers, and they are the right people to help you.
About once every three months
The need in our area is great. Help is usually limited to once every three months so that we can help as many people as possible.
You don’t have to face hard times alone
Being part of a Christian community can be a real source of support, with people who care about you and will walk with you through hard times. You are always welcome at St. Ann’s. Plan your visit →

The Society of St. Vincent de Paul
St. Vincent de Paul is a Catholic charity run by volunteers. It was founded in Paris in 1833 by Blessed Frédéric Ozanam and his friends, and today it serves more than 350,000 people a year across Canada. Its members seek to live the Gospel by serving Christ in those in need, with love, respect, justice and joy. At St. Ann’s, our members offer practical help and friendship to neighbours in need.
