The St. Vincent de Paul Society is a Catholic organization of lay people who are called by a spirit of justice and charity to help those who are suffering. Its special mission is to help those in need on a person-to-person basis.

It is this personalized involvement that makes the work of the society unique.

The mission of the society is to help those in need through a spirit of friendship and service. In addition to individual casework, St. Ann’s conference also serves the community through the Sharing Our Blessings program with LaBelle Elementary School, the parish food pantry, feeding unsheltered homeless, staffing an area thrift store, a car donation program, the Adopt-A-Family program and weekly food delivery to community outreach programs. 

An essential precept of the society’s work is to provide help while conscientiously maintaining the confidentiality and dignity of those who are served.
