Endowment Campaign

Ensuring St. Vincent de Paul is here for all of us today and tomorrow. 

A community institution like St. Vincent de Paul must not only meet today's needs but also be prepared and sustainable for tomorrow.


Growing St. Vincent de Paul's endowment allows us to strive for a campus and operation ready to meet future need, but it also protects the strides we take together as a community in expanding our services—because Common Ground is about more than buildings and physical space. 
 
Common Ground is also about the work that happens in those spaces, and ensuring that St. Vincent de Paul can continue to uplift the most vulnerable for generations to come. A Common Ground endowment gift is an investment in supporting the work St. Vincent de Paul does far into the future.
 
Homelessness. Hunger. Poverty. These challenges remain societal constants. As long as they exist, so must St. Vincent de Paul.

 


Our vision must be bold and our efforts fearless

The future of our ability to support our community lies in our determination and collective action today. Our goal is to emerge with a $100 million endowment in cash and commitments on our 80th anniversary in 2026. 

With your help, St. Vincent de Paul will be here for all those who need us to lift them back up

For all those without a safety net to keep them from falling short or falling at all

And for all those who seek a place to feel hope and happiness as they encounter the best parts of humanity and themselves in service to others.

We invite you to consider how we can do this together. How your gifts and talents, your passions and dreams for our community can help create the common ground we all need and deserve—not just today, but for generations to come.
