Good Samaritan Grant Program

In the Good Samaritan parable, we are called to be a good neighbor to people in need. The Sisters of Charity Foundation of Cleveland provides support each year to organizations meeting the basic needs – such as food, clothing, shelter, and transportation – of those living in poverty in Cuyahoga County.

Good Samaritan Grant Guidelines are now available. Completed applications for the current program – including an Application Form and a Budget Narrative – must be received by the Foundation by June 2, 2008.
