In Canada alone\, the SSVP helps more than 350\,000 people each year.  \n\n\n\n“We provide material support in the form of non-perishable food\, clothes\, household items and furniture to individuals and families across the country. Whether in their homes\, on the street\, in shelters\, in hospitals or in prison\, our work knows no boundaries. The Society also provides assistance to refugees\, immigrants\, and northern communities. Our founding activity\, still practiced today\, is the Home Visit. Through these visits\, our members\, known as Vincentians\, establish personal relationships with persons in need by offering material assistance\, as well as friendship and understanding.” – – https://ssvp.ca/  \n\n\n\n Establishing the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul in the Diocese of Saskatoon Step by Step – What might the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul (SSVP) look like in the diocese and who will it serve?
