Fun Fact

St. Vincent de Paul society was not founded until more than 150 years after St. Vincent’s death. Blessed Fredrick Ozanam founded the Society. He named it after St. Vincent de Paul, who is the patron saint of charitable societies, and modelled the Society on his call to “See Christ in the poor and to be Christ to the poor”.
