What we do
Samaritan Daytop Foundation was created in 1979 as the fundraising, housing development, and real estate arm of Samaritan Daytop Village. Its goal is to raise critical funds to help expand the vast array of Samaritan Daytop Village and Health programs and services.
With financial and in-kind donations from individuals, businesses, and community supporters, Samaritan Daytop Foundation invests in the agency's people and programs, doing more good than ever imagined. Donations help Samaritan Daytop Foundation provide funds for a growing wish list of enhanced programs and services for Samaritan Daytop Village and Health's clients.
Through a rich array of specialized health and human services, Samaritan Daytop Village brings lifesaving and life-changing services to men and women, adolescents, veterans, older adults, mothers and babies, the unhoused, and families.
Our clinical team responds to your every health concern and need – no matter how small – for a completely immersive healthcare experience. Our basic services include primary and psychiatric care, nutritional and dietary counseling, and case management.
From humble beginnings to national inspiration, Samaritan Daytop Village had one mission in mind when it opened its doors in 1960: To make a difference during a deadly heroin epidemic. That mission evolved over the years to respond to new epidemics, a homeless crisis, systemic racism, and a pandemic. Samaritan Daytop Village continues to adapt, grow, and thrive to ensure the health and wellbeing of New Yorkers.
You can make a great impact on the most vulnerable New Yorkers.
