Thank you for your continued support of the St Vincent de Paul Society NSW and taking the time to read our 2021/22 Annual Report. The events of the past year have highlighted the ability of the St Vincent de Paul Society to be a positive example and influence of care and compassion in times of hardship. From floods and lockdowns to the everyday, unnoticed myriad instances of assistance, the St Vincent de Paul Society is uniquely placed to respond to the needs of communities.

The 2021/22 financial year has been one where the Society has continued to adapt to challenges resulting from natural disasters and the ongoing COVID pandemic. We have the benefit of being part of the Society and the long history and strong Catholic traditions that provides us to build on. We also have the advantage of being an organisation that has, at every turn, shown its capacity to evolve as new demands are placed on us.
