Hijas de la Caridad España Sur

What Hijas de la Caridad España Sur does

Hijas de la Caridad España Sur is the southern Spanish province (Provincia España Sur) of the Company of the Daughters of Charity of Saint Vincent de Paul, a Catholic religious charitable organization headquartered in Seville. It provides integrated social, educational, and healthcare services to vulnerable populations through five core service lines: Acción Social Vicenciana (social outreach including social dining rooms and community houses serving ~200 beneficiaries per major event), Educación Vicenciana (schools and educational centers), Acción Socio-sanitaria Vicenciana (elderly residences and nursing care), Formación (formation and vocational programs), and Misión Ad Gentes (international missionary work in Morocco and Mauritania).

The organization operates through a network of owned facilities — including five or more elderly residences (Residencia La Milagrosa in Alcalá de Guadaira, Residencia Sagrada Familia in La Zubia, Residencia Santa Luisa de Marillac in Almería, Centro Regina Mundi in Granada, Asilo Dulce Nombre de María in Cádiz), six or more schools (Colegio San Vicente de Paúl in Cádiz, Centro Virgen Milagrosa in La Orotava, Colegio Madre de Dios in Jerez, Centro Educativo Vicenciano La Marina in Málaga, Colegio Sagrado Corazón in Bailén, and others), social dining rooms, and formation houses — across Eastern Andalusia (Seville, Cádiz, Málaga, Granada, Almería, Jaén) and the Canary Islands (Tenerife, Gran Canaria, La Palma, La Gomera, El Hierro), with international mission presence in Morocco and Mauritania.

Revenue is not commercially generated. Services are delivered free of charge, funded through individual donations, IRPF 0.7% personal income tax allocations, Junta de Andalucía grants, and affiliate foundations (Fundación DePaul, Fundación Marillac). The organization also runs lay outreach networks including the Asociación de la Medalla Milagrosa (A.M.M.) and the Juventud Vicenciana (JMV) youth movement, and operates a Transparency Portal. Leadership rests with Visitadora Sor Carmen Machado Sacramento, appointed in 2024 to succeed Sor Mª del Carmen Polo.
