The St. Rita Conference of the St. Vincent de Paul Society is comprised of a small group of volunteers from the parish who are dedicated to helping those in need in the parish and the community. The volunteers provide aid in the form of food, clothing, help with rent and utilities as well as help with other basic needs. The financial support for the efforts of these volunteers comes primarily from the generosity of parishioners and also from fundraisers and small grants. The conference helped well over 600 people in 2018, primarily families, who needed a boost to get back on their feet. Most of them came to the conference by referral through the St. Vincent de Paul office in San Rafael or self-referral to our telephone in the parish.

If you wish to volunteer, or want more information, please email jhayes321@comcast.net or call 415-454-6420 for help.
