Good Samaritan Ministries is continuing its Hope for the Holidays tradition of providing food and gifts to our community neighbors during the holiday season. We will serve over 500 families by providing food for the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays, and providing gifts for children in the Be a Light Marketplace.
The Hope for the Holidays program is available to low-income families in Northeast Tennessee with children 17 and younger (including 18 year old children enrolled in high school).
