A Very Merry Christmas!

christmas_boy200

Good Samaritan is grateful to everyone in the community who donated toys for children who would have otherwise gone without at Christmas. We have truly been blessed by the generosity of donors who made Santa’s job easier.

Of the 460 children we had, Good Samaritan had approximately 320 adopted and unfortunately for the other 140 children, Good Sam had to use “imaginary money,” credit cards, to fill their wishes. If you can help us re-coup this cost to help make a child’s Christmas morning one to remember, we would be truly blessed.

Donations of Men and Children’s Clothing and Shoes Tremendously Low!

men_clothing200Due to the state of the Economy, Good Sam is serving more and more in need of clothing. Our supply of men’s pants and children’s clothing is extremely limited at this time.

Good Sam serves at least 470 men, women and children a month with clothing and that number continues to grow.

We need your help to restock our Clothing Closet with gently used men’s pants in all sizes, children’s clothing in all sizes, and shoes in all sizes for men, women and children.  If you or your group would like to help by donating or volunteering, call us at 601-355-6276.
