The Samaritan Center

The Samaritan Center is an interfaith effort of community members who are committed to serving the hungry and those in need in Central New York in order to proote their welfare, dignity and self-sufficiency.

The Samaritan Center is a 501c3, interfaith effort to feed the homeless and needy men, women and children of Syracuse.

It is rooted in the belief that sound nutrition is the first step in enabling people to cope and become productive, self-sufficient members of society.

Our guests include both the young and the not so young, those who are well educated and those who are not, individuals and families, people whose lives are bound by the prison of substance abuse, people who are well and those who face the challenge of illness.

Men, women and children who have in common their humanity, their poverty and their sincere gratitude for a place of safety and warmth and a nutritious meal offered every day of the year.

We feed people and we do it well.
