Samaritas "Christmas Wish" Donation

During the 2022 Christmas season, OCP employees opened their hearts to a Samaritas family of six children and personally donated gifts to this family in need. The team also volunteered for a half-day to decorate at Samaritas Detroit for a special holiday-giving event hosted by Samaritas and Amazon to support five Ukrainian refugee families.

Oakland Corridor Partners (OCP) has partnered with Samaritas, a charitable organization in the Oakland County, MI area for the past 4 years. Samaritas spans the state’s Lower Peninsula with more than 60 program sites in over 40 cities, through nearly 2000 dedicated staff and volunteers. 

Samaritas programs include: Adoption, Foster Care, Senior, and Affordable Living. Their New Americans program offers refugee resettlement, job training, and school readiness. Disability services are offered through group homes and in-home support. Some other support services they offer include Home Health, community services, and prison-to-community reintegration for women, and they have the largest family homeless shelter program in the state.
