Dear Confreres and Friends,

Welcome to the website of the Vincentian Solidarity Office (VSO)!

The VSO continues its efforts to match a challenge grant to construct a Patrimony (endowment) Fund for several provinces of the Congregation of the Mission.  The finanical resources of these provinces do not adequately support their call to evangelize and serve the poor.  The Patrimony Fund Project will promote equality and solidarity within our Congregation and extend the charism of our founder, St. Vincent de Paul.  We are calling our effort to match the challenge grant, the “Vincentian Endowment Challenge.”

The VSO asks confreres to help with the Vincentian Endowment Challenge by thinking of potential donors to the Patrimony Fund Project among their families, friends, and the people they serve.   It would be most helpful if you forwarded contact information for these potential donors to the VSO (please see the Contact page in this website).  We also encourage confreres to remember the Patrimony Fund Project in their wills.

Learn more about the Vincentian Endowment Challenge and Patrimony Fund Project at: www.cmglobal.org/patrimony-en.

 Thank you for your interest in the VSO.

Sincerely,

Father Miles Heinen, C.M.
Executive Director
