Food Hamper Program at Samaritan House

Samaritan House Ministries

Phone: (204) 726-0758

The Samaritan House provides Assiniboine students in need with access to their food hamper program. In return, the ACC Students’ Association supports the Samaritan House with initiatives to collect food donations.

To access the food hamper program, please contact the Samaritan House Ministries directly and say you are an ACC Student and fill out the food hamper intake form here: Food Hamper Intake Form

You must have a piece of ID that has your address on it (license or passport for example). Fill out the completed form and take it with you if this is the first time you are accessing the program

You can access hampers Monday to Friday: 10:00am-3:00pm or Tuesday evenings from 4:00-5:30pm.

You will also find a food donation bin on campus throughout the year. We welcome students and staff to leave non-perishable food items for donation in this bin throughout the year and the ACCSA will collect them and deliver them to the Samaritan House!
