Youth and Schools WA
We aim to strengthen our relationship with young people and offer the opportunity to learn through our engagement with Primary and Secondary Schools.
We encourage teachers to champion a Mini Vinnies or Young Vinnies advocacy group in their school community. These groups connect student core learning outcomes with meaningful experiences focused on social justice issues, whilst thinking innovatively about how to provide much needed support and assistance to people in need in our local communities.
To learn more or for support connecting with your local conference, please don’t hesitate to reach out to youth@svdpwa.org.au
Engage your students and support your community this winter with Vinnies Winter Appeal.
To get your school involved, check out our Winter Appeal school resources.

Mini Vinnies are empowered to put their faith into action and meet regularly to learn about social justice issues, develop leadership skills and engage with the wider St Vincent de Paul Society.
