Challenges are a great way to show your support. Be the first!
Vincentian service at St. John’s provides students with opportunities to engage in social and theological reflections allowing the participants to grow personally as well as spiritually.
Each day during the week, students, faculty, and staff are afforded the opportunity to engage in a variety of Vincentian service opportunities. We hope you join us in service of the elderly, the youth, or with those who are homeless or hungry.
Raising awareness of our programs is the best way to honor St. Vincent de Paul on his Feast Day. Your campus ministry program support will cause a ripple effect among our students, in our communities and across the Globe. THANK YOU!!!
Our programs Include:
Midnight Run is a challenging experience where students have a “hands-on” encounter with the homeless of Manhattan. During a run, students gather to make bagged meals for the night. The meals are then distributed, along with clothes and toiletries, to those in need.
St. Vincent de Paul (SVdP) Society is a student run organization directed toward short and long-term service opportunities in service to the poor. SVdP Society brings students together who share a common experience of service and prayer as an integral part of our Vincentian education. Through community-based opportunities for service, monthly meetings and times of reflection and fellowship, members are afforded many ways to engage and serve our community.
CRS Student Ambassadors work to spread the mission of Catholic Relief Services to our University community. The CRS Ambassadors engage students in programs, activities and advocacy efforts centered on social justice issues, thus creating opportunities to join in solidarity with the global poor.
University Mission Food Insecurity Fund provides food and other resources to our most vulnerable in-need students.
