Building Relationships Through Service, Education, and Compassion

At St. Vincent de Paul of Baton Rouge (SVDPBR), community outreach is about more than programs—it’s about people. We partner with churches, schools, businesses, and community organizations to raise awareness of local needs, inspire service, and create meaningful opportunities to support neighbors in need.

​

Our outreach efforts are designed to educate, engage, and connect—because lasting impact begins with relationships.

Invite Us to Speak
Bring SVDPBR to Your Organization

SVDPBR offers speaking engagements for churches, schools, civic groups, businesses, and community organizations interested in learning more about service in our community.

Our presentations can be tailored to your audience and may include:

​

  • An overview of SVDPBR’s mission and services
     

  • Current needs facing individuals and families in Baton Rouge
     

  • Ways groups and individuals can get involved through volunteering
     

  • Opportunities to host or support community initiatives such as food or donation drives
     

Speaking engagements are a great first step in learning how your organization can make a difference locally.
