HOW SSVP OMAHA SERVES:

Picture

FOOD PANTRY

The Society's very large downtown Food Pantry - along with the food pantries at a number of our SSVP parish conferences - are crucial in helping feed struggling Omaha neighbors in need, serving more than 36,000 individuals and families each year. The Society's main Food Pantry, located at 2101 Leavenworth Street, provides non-perishable food, fresh and frozen produce, bread, dairy, and proteins, with our volunteer “Companions” escorting neighbors through the pantry, ensuring they are able to obtain the food they need to feed their families

CLOTHING FOR THE HOMELESS

Every weekday, volunteers and staff with our Holy Family Center's “Closet Door” distribute clothing and personal care items & toiletries, free of charge, to our homeless neighbors. Providing thousands of visits each year, our dedicated Closet Door representatives distribute a large variety of such items to homeless men, women (and even children) which includes - although is not limited to jeans/pants, shirts, sweatshirts, underwear, socks, shoes, boots, coats, gloves, sleeping bags, blankets, duffle bags/backpacks, razors, nail clippers, shampoo, lotion and deodorant.

SACK LUNCHES FOR THE HOMELESS

Each weekday, dedicated Society of St. Vincent de Paul Omaha volunteers prepare an average of 250 sack lunches to feed our neighbors in need in downtown Omaha. These lunches are provided free of charge to the homeless at the Society's Holy Family Center at 1715 Izard Street, and to families and individuals who live in nearby low-income housing. To many of our neighbors, this lunch is the only true meal they will have on any given day.

HOMELESSNESS PREVENTION:
KEEPING FAMILIES TOGETHER AND HOUSED

 ​Every day, local families face sudden financial crises - the loss of a loved one, an unexpected job loss, a medical emergency - that threaten their ability to stay in their homes. When crisis strikes, our Vincentian volunteers and staff are there, providing urgent support to keep families safe and stable. Through rental assistance, utility payments, and help with other critical bills, we prevent the devastating spiral of homelessness before it begins. Last year alone, thanks to the generosity of donors like you, the Society invested over $2 million to keep our neighbors in need housed and their basic utilities running. The evidence is clear: preventing homelessness is not only more compassionate, but also far more cost effective than trying to rebuild lives once stability has been lost. Your support makes an immediate, lasting impact - keeping families together, preserving dignity, and strengthening our entire community.

DISASTER RECOVERY

When natural disasters strike, the Society of St. Vincent de Paul Omaha supports local neighbors with immediate and long-term aid, including financial assistance, food, clothing, furniture, household items and resource coordination. As a member of the Tri-County Long Term Recovery Group - a coalition of non-profits, government agencies, and volunteers - SSVP Omaha helps families and businesses in Douglas, Sarpy and Washington Counties recover and build long-term resilience. Our Certified Disaster Case Managers guide survivors through the entire process, often for over a year, helping them reach a "new normal.

THRIFT STORES

Our four thrift stores offer deeply discounted, quality items - clothing, toys, books, furniture, and more - to help low-income families stretch their budgets. We also provide free vouchers to those in need and partner with local nonprofits, hospitals, and agencies to distribute essential goods at no cost.
