Whoever you are, we're here for you. SVP Ireland is committed to helping anyone who asks for it. Regardless of your location, age, race or gender, the Society of St Vincent de Paul are just a call away.
SVP offers you a wide range of supports, including practical help and advice, as well as a friendly, confidential ear. We can also connect you with other organisations that might be able to assist you.
You can directly request help through our website by using the online form, or by contacting any of our 8 regional offices located throughout the country.
Perhaps you need help with a household bill. Maybe back to school costs are biting. Perhaps it's food, light or heat. We at SVP are there for everyone. Asking for help can be off-putting, but we assure you complete discretion.
SVP is Ireland's largest charity organisation, and for 180 years has been right there on the ground providing help.
We live by the motto of our founder, Blessed Frédéric Ozanam, "In my life I want to be better and do a little good."
Getting help from SVP is a simple process.
Please be assured that we will treat whatever you say with dignity and respect, and everything you say is confidential. We are here to help you in whatever way we can. Our members are there to listen and offer support to you at a time of difficulty. When they have a better understanding of the issues faced, they will consider how best we may be able to help.
When someone contacts us and we have a record of their details, and the information is passed onto your local branch of SVP. A volunteer will make contact with you through a private number and you can discuss your particular problems in depth with a friendly person who makes no judgement on the situation.
