What we do
St. Vincent de Paul offers a variety of services to provide a hand up to our neighbors in need.
Since its inception in February 1995, the assistance that St. Vincent de Paul has provided to the needy in southeast Idaho has grown from giving help to just a few individuals per month to that of providing $123,350.05 through our Christian Ministries, $28,000 through the Christmas Basket Program, 65,502 meals, and Thrift Store goods with a retail value of $16,990.90, in 2018 alone.
Thrift Store
Providing meaningful employment and volunteer opportunities, our thrift stores are a significant driver of the Society’s mission and effectiveness.
Food Pantry
Serving neighbors in need in communities across East Idaho, our food pantries provide both fresh and non-perishable goods in neighborhoods impacted by poverty.
FREEMED
Our FREEMED program aids low-income people who have no insurance or have exhausted their prescription insurance to obtain prescription medications at little or no cost.
Christmas Basket Program
The Christmas Basket project story began 40 years ago as a modest effort at Holy Rosary church to provide a Christmas dinner and a toy to local families.
