Sharon Scott, Community Service Chair of the McKinney Rotary Club, presented $2,200 to Emily Johnson for the Samaritan Inn’s ‘Sponsor a Child’ Program. $500 covers the basic needs of one child while in their care.
On average 1/3 of The Samaritan Inn's homeless residents are children. In 2020 they had 201 children in their care for which they provided 5,183 hours of child care and after-school programs in addition to food and shelter. This Charity of the Month donation will support 4 ½ children while in their care.
