Heart, Hope, and Humanity

For more than 70 years, the St. Vincent de Paul Sacramento Diocesan Council has stood as a beacon of support for our neighbors in need. What began as a humble mission has grown into a powerful movement of compassion—one that is fueled by people like you.

Our Legacy

This year’s Annual Benefit for the Poor isn’t just an event; it is a celebration of the lives we have touched together. From keeping families in their homes to providing the essential dignity of a warm meal, our collective impact has been the bridge between despair and hope for thousands.

Why We Gather

Transformation doesn’t happen in isolation. It happens when a community decides that no one should walk their hardest path alone. By joining us for this milestone anniversary, you are helping us:

Prevent Homelessness: Providing emergency rental and utility assistance to families in crisis.
The Exodus Program: Supporting the successful reentry of formerly incarcerated individuals by providing the tools and mentorship needed to rebuild stable, productive lives.
Disaster Preparedness & Long-Term Recovery: Ensuring our community is ready for the unexpected and remaining on the ground long after a crisis to help neighbors navigate the slow road to recovery.
Nourish Neighbors: Expanding our reach to ensure food security across the twenty-one counties we serve.

A Future Built Together

As we look back on 70-plus years of service, we are even more focused on the years to come. Together, we don’t just create change—we weave a stronger, more resilient tapestry of care.

Join us in making this our most impactful benefit yet.
