St. Vincent Catholic Charities

What St. Vincent Catholic Charities does

Catholic Charities of Ingham, Eaton & Clinton Counties (CCIEC) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit human services organization formed in June 2024 through the merger of Cristo Rey Community Center (founded 1968) and St. Vincent Catholic Charities (founded 1948). The organization operates from two campuses in Lansing, Michigan, and serves residents of Ingham, Eaton, and Clinton Counties. Its service portfolio spans food assistance, primary and dental healthcare, behavioral health counseling, refugee resettlement, immigration legal services, child welfare (foster care and adoption), direct material assistance, and financial coaching. CCIEC has resettled more than 17,000 refugees from 60 countries since 1975 and is supported by more than 2,000 volunteers annually.

The operating stack is administrative rather than product-led: WordPress for web presence, Bloomerang for donor CRM, Volgistics for volunteer management, Heyzine for digital publishing, and SignUpGenius for volunteer scheduling. There is no proprietary technology platform, marketplace, or software product disclosed. CCIEC does not sell a product in the conventional sense — it delivers in-person and clinic-based services to vulnerable populations.

Revenue mechanics are characteristic of a community-based nonprofit: a mix of federal refugee resettlement contracts, state and county government grants (including $1 million in state funding secured in 2024), individual donations, corporate sponsorships, faith-based appeals, and earned revenue from clinical services such as dental and family health. Pricing is not applicable in a transactional sense; service recipients are generally low-income or otherwise qualifying households, and funding flows from third-party payers (government, donors) rather than direct service fees.

Directly comparable as a faith-based multi-service social services organization serving Michigan communities.
