About this app

Samaritan exists to reveal the stories with those we pass everyday—the single mom on the bus, the grandfather on the street, or the homeless teen outside the supermarket—and help us respond well in these moments.

When you cross paths with a Samaritan Beacon Holder, a notification will appear on your phone. Tapping on the notification provides an opportunity to read about the person’s story or contribute $1 or more towards a needed good or service (such as food, fuel or clothing).

The app currently supports Beacon Holders in Seattle, WA only.

I really like this app for many reasons. One in particular is that I can donate anonymously (or not if I choose). I think this is a clever idea and I hope it gets adopted in more locations by more people (donors and receivers).

Thank you so much for this app! You are awesome people. I was looking for an app like this to help people for a long time since I came to Los Angeles. I am feeling a little relieved to finally find an app to help unhoused people at Los Angeles(and other cities). I recommend this app to everyone who is reading the review
