Give A Goat

This Mother’s Day, give a gift that changes everything.

Mothers in Burundi have survived war, fled violence, and now live in refugee camps with little food or income. But a single goat can transform their lives — providing milk to feed their children, income to support their families, and hope for a new beginning.

For just $25, you can give a goat in honor of your mother and receive a beautiful printable certificate to share with her.

Yes, I want to help!

Join The Program

Maison Mère Project

More than 200 years ago we moved here and built this motherhouse to advance the mission of St. Vincent dePaul.

God is calling us to renew it and ourselves to do even more. We hope you will join us.

Seminary Project

St. Vincent knew priests, in order to serve God’s people well, needed deep faith, a solid education, and deep love for people living in poverty. Vincentian seminaries are essential if we want good priests.

Fostering Faith

Vincentian International Mission Services continues the ministry of St. Vincent dePaul who saw the face of Christ in people living in poverty, living on the margins, people whom the world considers unimportant.

Thanks to generous donor-partners, VIMS helps fuel the ministry of Vincentian priests and brothers serving in very poor communities where food, medicine, education, housing, clean water and so much more are in short supply.

Join us in making the world kinder, more productive, and more the way God wants it
