Since its founding in 1997, the mission of the Tippah County Good Samaritan Center has been to fulfill Jesus’s command to feed the hungry and meet the physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs of the people in Tippah County. We welcome all in our county to help with this mission by donating their money, food, and volunteer time at both of our centers.
