Good Samaritan Ministry aims to influence the tribal, remote and poor people of
Orissa, in Eastern India, with God's love in a practical way

 Good Samaritan Ministry Inc. (GSM) was started with a passion to help the less fortunate people in India. Presently GSM has focussed its interests in the state of Orissa in East India.  

GSM is a non-profit, inter-denominational, non-political, Christian charity aiming to influence the tribal, poor and remote people of India with the love of God in a practical way.  

Projects are currently focussed in the Kalahandi-Bolangir-Koraput (KBK) districts in Orissa. These districts are internationally known for their high rates of hunger, starvation, poverty and lack of education. These areas often experience natural disasters, floods and droughts, in quick succession.  

GSM was started by Ashok Mishal and his wife. Ashok grew up in one district of the KBK, and received education through a charitable mission. He now wishes to give people like himself the opportunity to change their future.  This can be done through sponsorship of children, widows or pastors, or through particular projects such as Christmas gifts or other once off donations to meet the needs of those who require assistance the most.

Thank you for your generous support of the 2011 Christmas cards!
We will be able to give out 65 saris, 45 pairs of chickens, 26 blankets, 10 new baby packs, 16 goats, 15 family food packages and four buffalo! Thank you.

We recently graduated 10 women from our sewing centre. They studied to learn the skill of tailoring and after 10 months graduated and recieved a new machine each. Thank you to everyone who donated money towards this project it was a huge success.
