Vinnies Social Justice Awards seek to
encourage young people, their schools
and the communities to which they
belong. The Awards celebrate the good
works already being done.
The key objectives for the Awards are:
� Affirm the value of action for the
benefit of others
� Encourage young people to be
generous with their time, energy
and resources
� Acknowledge young people who
have displayed generosity and
commitment to social justice
Young people’s enthusiasm and energy
flow into passion for creating better
opportunities for themselves and others.
The St Vincent de Paul Society came
into being because older people
encouraged young university students to
take action which supported their beliefs.
The Awards pay tribute both to today’s
young people who have taken action and
to those who nurture their spirit.
“Never see a need without doing something about it”
Mary MacKillop
It is not the words alone which have brought Mary
MacKillop to sainthood; it is the living out of her
beliefs through actions.
Blessed Frederic Ozanam said … The problem which divides people today is not a political problem; it is a social one. ... Many people have too much and still want more. Others do not have enough, or do not have anything at all … Because we are young; because we are not wealthy, we can more easily fill the role of mediators.
175 Years ago Frederic and his companions founded the St Vincent de Paul Society in Paris, 1833. They simply met to see what could be done for those in need.
Vinnies Social Justice Awards 2010
Many young South Australians are
making difference for others in need. We
invite you to help us celebrate their good
works in building a fair and just
community.

A WONDERFUL NIGHT The Awards night is an inspiring evening acknowledging the efforts of South Australia’s youth who are committed to social justice. The prestige of the guest list reflects the importance of the Awards. It also allows awardees to network with each other and discover more opportunities where they can further their social justice work.

The young people and their families will appreciate your commitment. In recognising social justice leaders, companies demonstrate social justice leadership.
