About Good Samaritan Network of Hamilton County

Good Samaritan Network (GSN) is a collaborative/network of non-profits in Hamilton County. The work of the Good Samaritan Network is considered an intermediary hybrid - a go-between or mediator of more than one source, i.e., the network. GSN utilizes two serving approaches, Direct and InDirect services. 

The InDirect services, in part, the network, is designed to routinely communicate, provide training, tools and resources, coordinate primary community related events, and ensure efficiency and communication among the different individuals, agencies, social services, nonprofits, organizations, local government, township trustees, food, clothing and baby pantries, schools, churches and businesses who serve the needs of Hamilton County residents at-risk or the underserved.

Direct Services impacts those within our community who are under-served and at-risk and often involves individual emergency or crisis intervention. Meeting the needs of people with life issues typically includes: food or shelter insecurities, financial assistance, education, transportation, and more! Holiday Assistance is one of our collaborative signature services reaching over 46,000 people annually for Thanksgiving and Christmas, including holiday meals, clothing and gifts.

Collaborating with: 268 Agencies, 280 Churches, 43 Food Pantries, 69 Schools, and 5 Hospitals.
