St. Vincent de Paul receives $20K donation to support housing stability

MONROE, Wis. — St. Vincent de Paul in Monroe is experiencing a growing demand for assistance with housing costs across Green County. A recent large donation is helping them achieve their community goals.

St. Vinny's store manager Alyssa Morris says the thrift store’s sales directly fund assistance for people facing unexpected expenses like rent, utilities, and car repairs.

With a new $20,000 donation from SSM Health to support its housing stability program, the organization is better positioned to keep families housed across Green County.

"Just the little communities that are in Green County, I think it's just a huge aspect to just have something here that maybe the county can't help with everything. They can't help with certain bills. United Way can't help with everything either. So I just think that having another organization that can help with those bills would be super helpful," Morris said...
