Touching Lives
Making A Difference

Because of your faithful support, USF Daily Bread Trucks served 35,851 meals in April 2009.

In our Emergency Food Box Program, 283 families (681 people) were provided with a three-day, three meals per day supply of food which equals 6,129 meals.

Did you know that USF also provides a laundry and shower facility and a postal mail station for the homeless?

We Need You...
THEY Need You!

Lay offs continue! Pay cuts and work furloughs! Foreclosures! Cuts in services to the most vulnerable! On a daily basis we read about it in the paper, hear it on the news, see it on the internet. What does it mean? It means that an increasing number of families, elderly, and single adults are facing tough choices. They are having to choose between food, housing, health care, clothes for growing children, the daily necessities of life. You can help ease their struggles. You can make a difference in the lives of your neighbors, in strangers, in the people struggling in your community by giving to United Samaritans Foundation. Through your donations of food, money or clothing you are touching the lives of those families in need. We are here to serve the less fortunate in our communities. We need your help to do it. Reach out and touch a life today by giving to United Samaritans Foundation.
