The Society of St. Vincent de Paul is a volunteer organization that offers direct aid to those in need across nine counties in North Texas. Through personal, compassionate interaction, the Society’s members provide short-term financial, material and emotional support to our neighbors in crisis. In addition, broader Society programs and services help families address the underlying root causes of their basic unmet needs. Things like access to free prescription medication for those without insurance, or support in escaping predatory debt empower neighbors to build a life free from poverty.

At the Jefferson Conference we provide:

  • A monthly Food Pantry
  • Prescriptions
  • Gas
  • Temporary lodging
  • Partial utility assistance
  • During the winter we also provide gloves and/or hats, and blankets and coats (when available).
  • Reference information to other agencies in the area

Our St. Vincent de Paul Conference - Immaculate Heart of Mary was started in the mid 1990's. St. Vincent de Paul was started in the early 1800's by college age students in France to help people in need. It has grown to have Conferences all over the world.
