The St. Vincent de Paul Society, Roseville was founded in August 1983. We started as a small thrift store and office that provided free furniture, and rent and utilities assistance for Roseville residents. By December 1983, we had opened our Dining Room; and January 1984, we started our Food Locker in a 10x10 foot room.
Since that time, St. Vincent de Paul has created several additional programs and services. Our BAGS program began in 2001 with the help of a grant from the City of Roseville, allowing us to deliver groceries to home-bound seniors and disabled individuals. With the expansion of our programs and services, we needed more space. In 2006 we moved to our current office/warehouse on Giuseppe Court.
In 2018, St. Vincent de Paul, Advocates for Mentally Ill Housing (AMIH), and Kids First, in a collaborative effort, began receiving funding from the City of Roseville's CDBG Homeless Prevention and Rapid Rehousing grant. This grant assists Roseville & Rocklin residents in need of assistance with rent and utility payments. In 2020, funding via the Emergency Food and Shelter Program and CARES Act began providing assistance for Placer County residents with rent, mortgage and utilities. In 2022, the City of Rocklin awarded funding for both rental & utility assistance, as well as expansion of the BAGS Home Delivery Program for homebound seniors in Rocklin. The Kaiser Foundation has provided funding for rental & utility assistance supporting greater Placer county since 2022. 2025 finds St. Vincent de Paul Roseville in need of expansion in order to serve the increased needs of South Placer county and the increased food donations. It is time to renovate our warehouse and food locker to more efficiently serve our community!
