Helping Our Neighbors in Need

• We donate items out of our stores directly to low-income people. Last year we gave away over $135,000 of clothes, bedding, and household items.
   
• We operate the largest food pantry in Dane County. Last year we helped over 45,000 people with $1,300,000 worth, of food. A share of the food provided through our food pantry is purchased with money raised from our Thrift Store sales.

• We are the principle place in Dane County to donate furniture to help the homeless after they find housing. Over $238,000 of furniture was donated last year.

• Money raised from our store sales allow us to help people with other needs such as emergency shelter, and prescriptions.  Last year we donated $43,342 of prescription assistance.

• At any one time over 50 men, women and children reside in housing operated in Madison by the Society of St. Vincent de Paul. We operate Port St. Vincent de Paul (a home for men) and St Elizabeth Ann Seton House (transitional housing for women and children).

• We run Thrift Stores where people can buy clothes, furniture, and household items at low prices.
