(AU, 73591401592) Browse eventsOperating since 1884, the Society in South Australia has over 2500 members and volunteers in 64 Conferences, 34 Vinnies Centres and numerous Special Works. They work together, supported by dedicated staff, to relieve not only the immediate requirements of those in need, but to identify the deep and long-term causes leading to financial and social hardship in our community, and provide a voice for the disadvantaged. Each year the Society assists almost 100,000 South Australians. This help is not limited to providing material goods, food and shelter, but extends to providing support, relief from loneliness and encouragement for people to help themselves. Vinnies relies largely on the generosity of donations from the public, and any surplus generated goes directly to supporting the Society’s good works, which provide a range of services to people facing disadvantage. Our services include; Conferences - Serving people in need on a one to one basis. Vinnies Centres - Providing quality pre-loved clothing, household goods and furniture for people in need. Fred’s Van - Feeding the homeless and hungry. Vincentian Centre - Providing emergency accommodation and support to homeless men around the clock every day of the year. Migrant and Refugee Committee -Welcome and help for new arrivals to South Australia. LEAP Program - Pathways to education, training and employment. Overseas Partnerships and Development - A contribution to world peace and understanding. Frederic Ozanam Housing Association Inc. - Housing those in need.
