Welcome to Vinnies, located at 10 Costas Drive in Hoppers Crossing, Australia. As an establishment, point of interest, and store, Vinnies is more than just a place to shop. We are a part of the St Vincent de Paul Society, a renowned organization that offers over 200 services to help those in need.

At Vinnies, we believe in supporting constitutional recognition of Australia's First Nations peoples, and we are proud to be a part of the St Vincent de Paul Society, which has been advocating for this cause for many years. Our mission is to ease the pressure on families who struggle to cover the basics by providing practical support. By choosing to shop at Vinnies, you are giving Australians facing poverty another choice.

With over 45,000 members and volunteers across Australia, the St Vincent de Paul Society works tirelessly to assist people in need and combat social injustice. Internationally, our society operates in 153 countries and has over 800,000 members. Our commitment to our mission, vision, and values is unwavering, and we strive to establish relationships based on respect, trust, friendship, and perception.

We not only provide immediate assistance but also work towards transforming the causes of poverty and challenging human injustice. Our goal is to encourage spiritual growth, welcome innovation, and give hope for the future. Additionally, we are proud to be a nominating organization for the Australian Government's School Student Broadband Initiative (SSBI).

Vinnies is always looking for motivated, community-minded individuals to get involved in our programs, events, and services nationwide. Together, we can actively and passionately speak out against the causes of poverty and inequality.

Our impact is best illustrated through the stories of individuals like Samantha, whose life was turned around with a helping hand from Vinnies. J, who was injured and retrenched at the age of 55, found support and assistance during a challenging time. D, who lost her job just before her 64th birthday, received the help she needed to navigate unemployment for the first time in her life.

As a lay Catholic organization, we are dedicated to creating a more just and compassionate society. We also want to acknowledge that we are on Aboriginal land and pay our respects to all traditional custodians.
