Vincentian is a nonprofit ministry that has served Pittsburgh through compassionate care since 1924. Founded by the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth, Vincentian has grown into a continuum of care that supports people of all ages and stages of life. Today, our services for older adults include independent living, personal care, memory care, short-term rehabilitation, and long-term skilled nursing. Beyond senior care, Vincentian operates a childcare center, a catering social enterprise known as The Unconventional Kitchen, and a learning institute for workforce training and development. Through these diverse ministries, Vincentian continues its century-long mission of service, rooted in faith and focused on human dignity.

Compelled by the love of Christ, Vincentian nurtures and sustains a ministry of compassionate care that preserves the human dignity of persons within a diverse and changing society.

More About Vincentian

Vincentian is committed to creating intergenerational programming that brings together older adults, children, and everyone in between to foster connection, reduce isolation, and promote meaningful living. The impact for all involved is powerful, as participants gain empathy and a sense of belonging, among many other benefits. These programs embody our belief that every person, regardless of age, has gifts to share and lessons to teach.

How You Can Help

Help support Vincentian in two ways: through a direct donation to Vincentian at vincentian.us/givenow, or through our catering line, The Unconventional Kitchen (more info at unconventionalkitchen.us), a commercial kitchen located in the former St. Louise Convent, where we invite our customers to Eat Well and Give Back to their community. 

Supporting Vincentian or The Unconventional Kitchen helps us continue to provide benevolent care to those in need, particularly older adults who rely on government assistance as their only means to pay.
