Good Sam Meal Program
We Couldn’t Do It Without You
Housing and food insecurity are intrinsically linked so our food program is an essential part of our work. With the community’s help, we provide approximately 25,000 meals annually to our guests.
Guests Enjoy
- Stir fry
- Hearty soups and cornbread
- Chicken, rice, and salad
- Shepherd’s pie
- Pot Roast
- Mac and cheese with veggies
- Meatloaf
- Vegetarian options
- Healthy meals that include vegetables, protein, and carbohydrates
Note: Some guests have dietary restrictions so we want to avoid foods that may cause allergic reactions, such as peanuts and shellfish. And, please, no recipes that contain alcohol.
