The Gift that Gives Again

Give meaningful alternative gifts to your family, friends and business associates by donating to Samaritan Ministry in their honor. We will provide attractive cards to send to each person on your list explaining how your gift will help people who are homeless and in need to help themselves to better lives through Samaritan Ministry's Next Step Program.

Your donation will provide Next Step Program participants with tangibles such as:

  • Transportation to job interviews
  • Visits with trained caseworkers who provide support and encouragement
  • Access to the Internet to find jobs, housing and services.
