For 25 years, GSM has been feeding, clothing, advocating for, and equipping those living in poverty with work and life skills necessary to become self-sufficient. They have recently received authorization to open the Lil’ Samaritan Wellness Preschool, which will provide jobs, education with a Christian worldview, along with medical and dental services for both children and their families. In addition to that, the Seed of Change program, introduced last year, is gearing up for GED, ESL, horse ranch hand training, discipleship, sewing, and redesign classes.
