I had never heard of this foundation/charity here in Miami, FL (East coast USA). So I don't think it is a major organization like the red cross or humane society in the US. (I may be completely wrong)

They operate thrift shops in some areas of the US. It might be a west-coast mainly thing, but I think they have some locations on the east coast as well.

They have St Vincent de Pauls societies in little towns all over the world.

In the Boston suburb where I grew up,they were 12 parishioners who would collect money and make direct payments on people's rent, car payments, they would bring Thanksgiving dinners to those who couldn't afford them, and they had a clothing drive.

Right, but literally 10 seconds of Googling reveals that it is in a few different places.
