We would like to thank the Community for your support. Without your assistance we would not have been able to provide the men at our shelter with the assistance and support they need. The men had a wonderful and warm holiday during the Christmas Season here at Vincent Place. We thank all who supported us with monetary and food donations. Without your generosity we wouldn’t be able to survive. Donations can be made at any time, either by mail or online through our secure system.

THRIFT STORE IS NOW OPEN.

There are a lot of people who depend on Vincent Place for their dinners from the soup kitchen and food from the food bank. Without this service that we provide, a lot would go hungry. Just imagine yourself being in that situation without any food for even a day especially for a whole week. Children not having any breakfast before  going to school. No snacks when they come home. We have a lot of families in Sault Ste. Marie in these hard time situations that are helped at VINCENT PLACE.

WE NEED YOUR HELP!!!

Recently we had to close the Thrift Store which provided a lot of free clothing, as well as a cheap place to shop at for those who could afford a little. But most of all it was a revenue to help offset the cost of operating the food bank and the soup kitchen.  We have been operating in the red for a few month and couldn’t continue to operate any longer.Hopefully we can find another place that we could operate with a profit.

WE NEED YOUR HELP!!!

We have many volunteers from every corner of our city who donate their time to make Vincent Place a reality either it be at the Thrift Store (closed for relocation), Food Bank, Soup Kitchen or the Shelter,and we are so thankful for the help that we get. But we also need donations to keep Vincent Place operating.  If you could help we would be so appreciative. Just click on the logo ‘Donate Now‘ to make an online totally secure donation.  You will also be able to download a legal registered copy of your donation and print it on your computer.

Your donation will help so many unfortunate people.  You can also designate which component that you would like to donate to.
