Welcome to Vinnies, located at 28 Howe Street, Daylesford, 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, an organization that offers over 200 services to help those in need.

One of our core values is supporting constitutional recognition of Australia's First Nations peoples. We believe in equality and strive to make a difference in the lives of all Australians, regardless of their background or circumstances.

When families are struggling to cover the basics, Vinnies steps in to provide practical support and ease the pressure. By choosing to shop with us, you are giving Australians facing poverty another choice and making a positive impact on their lives.

In Australia alone, the St Vincent de Paul Society has more than 45,000 dedicated members and volunteers who work tirelessly to assist people in need and combat social injustice. Our reach extends internationally, with operations in 153 countries and over 800,000 members worldwide.

Our commitment to service is guided by our mission, vision, and values. We strive to create a welcoming and non-judgmental environment for all, regardless of creed, ethnicity, social background, health, gender, or political opinions. Respect, trust, friendship, and perception form the foundation of our relationships with those we serve.

At Vinnies, we not only provide immediate assistance but also work to transform the causes of poverty and challenge human injustice. We encourage spiritual growth, embrace innovation, and offer hope for a brighter future.

We are proud to be a nominating organization for the Australian Government's School Student Broadband Initiative (SSBI), and we are always seeking motivated individuals to join us in our programs, events, and services nationwide.
