The Samaritan Community was established by Memorial Episcopal Church in the late 60 s as a response to the needs of families and individuals in crisis, primarily providing food. Since then, we have provided emergency assistance to thousands of families and individuals. The staff and volunteers are committed to helping those we serve take control of their lives. We accomplish this through counseling, emergency food and financial assistance.In addition, we help people access the services of government agencies, hospitals, employers and schools through advocacy and referral. We also receive referrals from these same sources, asking for our help for those that they cannot serve. We accept and need volunteers and contributions from all sources to meet the ever-increasing requests for our services.
