The Good Samaritans
Founded in 1982, The Good Samaritans is an organization of community volunteers dedicated to assisting Good Samaritan Hospital in its mission within the community of Greater Cincinnati.
The Good Samaritans follows its own bylaws and serves Good Samaritan Foundation as a “friend – fundraising society.” The organization was conceived as the brainchild of a group of dynamic women who wished to support the hospital and increase Good Samaritan’s value to society.
