Your Impact 2022-23

“My children love coming to St Joe’s and always look forward to the next gathering. I hand over insecure hurting children and you hand back confident happy ones. I don’t need to know what you do with them when you have them. The proof is in the pudding.”
“Clemente helped me build my confidence, connect with my community, and kept me sane during a very hard time in my life. My mental health was at a breaking point, however I didn't give up. With the help of amazing volunteer mentors, I completed my Liberal Arts certificate.”
“Before I became a volunteer I was looking for work and at my age no-one wanted me. I was scared but Cheryl (manager of Vinnies Goulburn) was so kind and made me feel so welcome. I told her I had no family, I just had my little dog, she said “you now have a Vinnies Family”. Now I have my life back, thanks to Vinnies.”

Volunteer with us
No matter what skills and experience you have, we have opportunities available across a wide variety of services and progress across our region.
We have opportunities available both during and after business hours. Many volunteering positions are ongoing, but short-term opportunities are also available.

Fundraise for us
The more funds raised on our behalf, the more we can help the families and individuals who turn to St Vincent de Paul Society Canberra/Goulburn for help every single day.
There are all kinds of ways you, your organisation or your school can fundraise for Vinnies from participating in our annual sleepouts and appeals to hosting your own event.

Leaving a gift in your Will
Leaving a gift in your Will (Bequests) to the St Vincent de Paul Society Canberra/Goulburn (Vinnies) is a powerful way to make a difference in improving the lives of future generations.
