Their Story

# About Me I'm 62, I used to work and go to school, but when COVID hit...

they closed down the school. So my job got terminated. I am mostly okay with minimal benefits but I am falling a bit short at the end of the month. It's also affected my mental health and I don't get out much. I would like to have connection with people. It's been hard to stay upbeat and positive. I would love to have someone to check in with me and have friendship. I fight with depression and I need a support group to give me motivation to get out of bed. I also want to go back to school and get an associates degree in art.

These are our neighbors

During this unprecented time, it's never been more important to help them find a safe, stable, supportive place to sleep at night.

We find that when we wrap a social home around someone, they gain the capacity to often find the physical home soon after.

You are invited to join one or many who seek to find a home this year.

The number one question I'm asked, is " Jeff, how do I respond when asked for help on the street? Samaritan is an answer to that question.

This is the first time in seven years people have seen me for who I am, not what I look like or come from.

Thanks to samaritans for checking up on and feeding me… Don’t know how I would have ate or kept warm many nights without you.

Sometimes, you can feel really invisible and it can kind of feel al lot of times like there's no help out there. It was just nice to have people be like "Yea, we really want to help."
