2025 Annual Report
2025 Annual Report Now Available: See the Impact You Made!
When I look back on this past year at St. Vincent de Paul – Cincinnati, I’m struck by the variety of ways that care took shape for our neighbors. Care offered at doorsteps and in thrift stores. Care found in pantry aisles, prescription bottles, warm coats, emergency rent checks, and quiet conversations around kitchen tables. Care that came from every corner of our community and from every angle of generosity.
Each act of compassion this year was shaped by your unique perspective, gifts, and creativity. Some of you organized food drives in moments of crisis. Others donated items that restored dignity: a new coat, sturdy shoes, even nail polish because “everyone deserves to feel good.” Vincentians stepped into homes to listen and advocate. Local businesses shared resources in ways only they could. And neighbors who once received help returned to offer it to someone else.
That is the story of St. Vincent de Paul: Neighbors helping neighbors from every angle.
Because care isn’t one-size-fits-all. It’s personal. It’s relational. It’s imaginative. And it has never mattered more. This year, more families turned to us than ever before. Together, we responded, not just with services, but with creativity, compassion, and a willingness to see need from new angles and ask, “What can I do from where I stand?”
Your generosity made that kind of hope possible. You helped families stay in their homes. You filled refrigerators and medicine cabinets. You gave beds to children and dignity to older adults. You stood beside people rebuilding after incarceration. You connected your workplaces, your parishes, and your circles of influence to our mission in ways that multiplied impact far beyond what any of us could do alone.
As we look ahead, the need in our community continues to grow… and so does the opportunity to meet it with imagination and grace. My hope is that this Annual Report not only shows you what we accomplished together but also inspires you to consider your own angle of care. What unique gifts, skills, connections, or creativity can you offer? Who in your life might join you in serving our neighbors? No matter your angle of approach, it matters. It adds to the whole. And it ensures that no neighbor faces hardship alone.
Thank you for the compassion you bring to our community, and for serving with us — from every angle.
With gratitude,
Brad McMonigle
CEO, St. Vincent de Paul – Cincinnati
