FROM THE PRESIDENT AND CEO 2025
COREY MCGRATH STATE PRESIDENT
HEATHER KENT CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
Our call, as Vincentians, is to serve—not for recognition or reward, but because love demands it. And love, as our Founder Frédéric Ozanam reminded us, must always walk hand-in-hand with justice. We are often given the privilege of witnessing firsthand the quiet strength of those we walk alongside—people accessing Emergency Relief, living in our supported accommodation services, or joining us for a warm meal at one of our soup vans. They come in need, but also with courage. We meet them, not with answers, but with presence. With listening hearts and with hands ready to help. Our Good Works and Special Works continue to be a lifeline for those facing hardship and typically our annual report has delivered an overview of these services over the past year, expressing this with vibrant descriptions to showcase the work of our Vincentian Family in Tasmania. While you will still find statistics that describe the way in which our Vincentian Members, staff and valuable volunteers have delivered selfless service across our state during 2024-25, we are pleased to take a fresh approach to the new format of this document, our Impact Report. Our Impact Report is purposefully designed to share stories that go beyond the surface of service delivery. Inside this document, you will find details of who we support and how we do this, but importantly you will find snapshots that describe more deeply the impact that we are making at a very real level, together with a quote that brings this to life even further. For those who wish to join us, we also note how you can help too.
