Samaritan House is 501(c)3 non-profit, grass-roots, inter-faith ministry, but not affiliated with any church or religious/faith organization. We do not ask for, nor receive any local, state or federal funds/grants. Our support comes from the faith community, private individuals, and grants.
We are happy to receive contributions in honor of, or in memory of, family or friends, and at special times of the year such as Mother’s Day or Thanksgiving, and can acknowledge those remembrances. Please ask your church to include Samaritan House with a grant in an annual budget. We would be happy to sit down with your Outreach group and find just the right collaboration for your congregation.
