Vinnies 100 Graham Street, Wonthaggi, Victoria 3995

Welcome to Vinnies, located at 100 Graham Street in Wonthaggi, 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, offering 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 a longstanding commitment to this cause. When families are struggling to cover the basics, Vinnies is here to ease the pressure with practical support. By supporting us, you are giving Australians facing poverty another choice.

With over 45,000 members and volunteers, the St Vincent de Paul Society in Australia works tirelessly to assist those in need and combat social injustice across the country. Internationally, our society operates in 153 countries and has over 800,000 members.

Our mission, vision, and values are at the core of everything we do. We believe in loyalty, welcoming and serving all without judgement, and providing service regardless of creed, ethnicity, social background, health, gender, or political opinions. We strive to establish relationships based on respect, trust, friendship, and perception.

We are dedicated to transforming the causes of poverty and challenging the causes of human injustice. Through encouraging spiritual growth, welcoming innovation, and giving hope for the future, we aim to make a lasting impact on the lives of those we serve.

Vinnies is proud to be a nominating organization for the Australian Government's School Student Broadband Initiative (SSBI). We are always looking for motivated, community-minded individuals to get involved in our programs, events, and services nationwide. There are many ways you can help make a difference.

As an organization, we are committed to speaking out against the causes of poverty and inequality on behalf of the people we serve. We have seen firsthand the transformative power of a hand up from Vinnies, such as Samantha, whose life has been turned around, or J, who was injured and needed support after being retrenched from his job.

We are a lay Catholic organization working towards a more just and compassionate society. We acknowledge that we are on Aboriginal land and pay our respects to all traditional custodians. This website may contain images of deceased members of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community, which are used with the greatest respect and appreciation.

The St Vincent de Paul Society National Council of Australia Inc. is endorsed by the Australian Taxation Office as a Deductible Gift Recipient. By supporting Vinnies, you are helping us continue our mission to create a better future for those in need. Join us in making a difference today.
