3rd Annual
Jim's Ride
​As of September 20, 2025, Samaritan Inn has received $18,000 as a match to $6,853 donated by Jim's Ride! Daryl Hersom, Assistant Director called me this week to let me know great news. They plan on replacing floors in the guest rooms, and upgrading the bathroom sinks to 36" and enlarging them to accommodate washing dishes. This is the only sink in the room. They are also working on the tutoring/counseling room to make it more usable during counseling appointments. In total, 15 spaces will be upgraded in one way or another. AND, Habitat for Humanity is donating all of the work so 100% of donations will go to materials!
​
This means that Jim's Ride has helped contribute over $63,447 through gifts and matching donations!!! Giving the check for $6,853 would have been fantastic. God continues "to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine..." (Ephesians 3:20, NIV).
