Good Samaritan Food Ministries

About Good Samaritan

Good Samaritan Ministries of Northeast Georgia, LLC exists to serve individuals and families in need, primarily through food distribution. In 2024, we were honored to serve over 184,000 people, providing essential resources to our community. In addition to food assistance, we offer furniture and clothing (when available), job placement training, counseling, and health screenings to further support those we serve.

Our ministry is led by Executive Director Jackie Powers and Operations Manager Casey Minish, along with a dedicated team of volunteers who work tirelessly each week to make a difference.

If you or a group is interested in serving at Good Samaritan, we would love to have you! Simply, contact Jackie.
We accept furniture, clothing and food donations every week day (Monday-Friday) 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM at our warehouse located at 1220 McEver Road Gainesville, GA 30504.
