SVP (St. Vincent de Paul Society)

"Turning Concern into Action"

The St. Vincent de Paul Society (SVP) is a worldwide organization dedicated to providing practical support and friendship to those in need. At the Parish of The Annunciation, Rushcliffe, our SVP group is committed to bringing the love and compassion of Christ to our local community.

Our Mission

Inspired by the teachings of St. Vincent de Paul, our mission is to offer person-to-person support, reaching out to the lonely, struggling, or marginalized. We strive to provide practical help and spiritual encouragement to those in need, guided by humility, empathy, and faith.

What We Do

The SVP group focuses on making a positive difference in the lives of individuals and families through:

  • Home Visits: Offering companionship and support to those who are isolated or facing challenges.

  • Practical Assistance: Providing food, clothing, or financial support for those experiencing hardship.

  • Community Outreach: Supporting parishioners and neighbors through various initiatives, including:

    • Helping with shopping or errands.

    • Offering transport for appointments or church services.

    • Listening and providing a friendly presence.

How You Can Help

  • Supporting our initiatives through donations or fundraising events.

  • Referring individuals or families in need of assistance.
