Our Story
The story starts with a young girl's deep concern for the less fortunate in her community, specifically the homeless and those affected by food insecurity. But as time went by, this concern grew into a passionate mission shared by families all across Hamilton County, who also wanted to make a positive impact on the lives of those in need.

Serving Hamilton County
At the Good Samaritan Network (GSN), our mission is to serve the needs of Hamilton County residents who are at risk or underserved. We understand that life can be tough sometimes, and we're here to offer a helping hand. GSN is a collaborative network of non-profit organizations, social services, local government, pantries, and businesses that work together to ensure that those in our community who are at-risk have access to the support and resources they need. We use two different methods of helping people: direct services and indirect services. Our goal is to ensure that each person who comes to us for help gets the support they need in the most efficient and effective way possible. We care deeply about our community and are committed to making a positive difference in the lives of those we serve.
