where our neighbors in crisis find help and hope


Shively Area Ministries (SAM) is a faith-based nonprofit dedicated to transforming lives and strengthening the fabric of the Shively community. We do this by providing emergency, short-term and, in some cases, ongoing assistance to individuals and families in poverty and crisis in the 40216 zip code.*

SAM responds to the needs of persons in poverty and crisis by uniting churches, civic groups and businesses to improve the quality of life for others. Our services are made possible through financial and in-kind donations, the time and talent of faithful volunteers and generous community support.
