🏠❤️ Help Us Secure Our Forever Home! ❤️🏠

For almost 40 years, the Union County Good Samaritan Center has been helping local families through difficult times by providing food assistance. When funds are available, we offer assistance with utilities, rent, and mortgages, and hope when it is needed most.

Today, we need your help.

The building we currently operate from at 845 Sam T. Barkley Drive in New Albany is being sold. We have been given the first opportunity to purchase the building, but we must raise an estimated $200,000 within the next 4 months to help us make this dream a reality.

This building purchase is critical to our future. The funds raised through this capital fundraising campaign will be used exclusively for the purchase of the building. If we are unable to secure a permanent home, we may not be able to continue providing services to our community.

The Union County Good Samaritan Center operates the only ongoing food pantry serving New Albany and Union County. Without this ministry, many families would have nowhere to turn for regular food assistance and emergency support.

Every donation, every share, and every prayer help bring us one step closer to securing our forever home and ensuring that these vital services remain available for years to come.

📍 Building Location: 845 Sam T. Barkley Drive, New Albany, MS
💲 Fundraising Goal: $200,000
⏳ Deadline: 4 Months

Please share this post and help us spread the word. Together, we can ensure that no family in Union County must face hunger alone.
