Following our recent grant announcement from the Greater Houston Disaster Alliance, the Society of St. Vincent de Paul is committed to providing targeted assistance to households affected by the derecho and severe weather between April 26 and May 17.
Targeted Assistance for Specific Areas
We have identified the ZIP codes most adversely affected by the recent weather events, to ensure those in the greatest need receive support and recover. We have allocated the funds received to local Conferences that are prepared to provide assistance.
77043, 77055, 77080 - St. Cecilia Catholic Church
77357, 77372 - St. Martha Catholic Church (Kingwood)

How to Seek Assistance
If you or someone you know resides in one of the affected ZIP codes and is in need of assistance, please call the 2-1-1 Texas/United Way HELPLINE to be referred to a servicing Conference. Our volunteers are ready to help you navigate these difficult times with compassion and support.
Assistance through 211 can also be accessed through the following methods in the event of long wait times due to periods of heavy call volume:
Visit 211texas.org to search resources online or chat online with a specialist.
Email help@unitedwayhouston.org for assistance.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our dedicated Vincentian members who tirelessly work to provide relief to impacted communities. Your unwavering commitment embodies the spirit of St. Vincent de Paul and Blessed Frederic Ozanam and brings hope to those in need.
