Vincentia Gerosa (1784–1847) was an Italian saint who together with Bartolomea Capitanio founded the Sisters of Charity of Lovere.She was a native of Lovere Lombardy. She met Bartolomea when she was 40 years old. Together they founded the order because of their concern over the ignorance and neglect of the people of their area which they saw. Vincenza would continue with the order several years after Bartholomea died.
