Basic Needs Assistance

At Basic Needs Assistance, located in San Marcos, TX, we are dedicated to providing essential support to individuals and families in crisis through our emergency financial assistance program administered by the Society of St. Vincent de Paul. Our services aim to alleviate immediate hardships by offering help with utilities, including electric, water, and gas, as well as limited rent assistance and temporary lodging. We understand the diverse needs of our community, so we also provide assistance with transportation costs, prescription medications, clothing, and diapers, alongside occasional food support. Our volunteers are committed to promptly addressing requests, primarily through phone consultations, and can arrange home visits for delivering food and essential items when necessary. If you are in need of support, please reach out to us, and together we can navigate your challenges with care and compassion.
