About Us
The Samaritan House (TSH) of Orangeburg County, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit entity registered in the state of South Carolina. TSH was organized in 2001 in response to the great need in the Orangeburg area, as was evident by the use of a now-defunct “shelter” that existed under deplorable conditions. Under the leadership of Ginger Jernigan, a group of community leaders saw the need and began serving the homeless in 2002. Since its inception, the organization's purpose has been to provide temporary housing, daily meals, and stabilization services to homeless adult men, women, and their children.
