Samaritan's Purse is a Christian humanitarian organization based in the United States. Founded in 1970 by Bob Pierce, the organization is headquartered in Boone, North Carolina. Its mission is to provide spiritual and physical aid to needy individuals around the world, regardless of their race, religion, or nationality.

Samaritan's Purse offers a variety of products and services to those in need. Their main focus is on disaster response, providing emergency relief such as food, shelter, and medical assistance to those affected by natural disasters, war, or conflict. They also focus on community development, providing resources for sustainable development projects, including clean water, healthcare, and education initiatives.

In addition, Samaritan's Purse operates several medical clinics and hospitals in developing countries. Operating on a global scale, Samaritan's Purse has established numerous partnerships and subsidiaries to expand its reach. One of its notable partnerships is with Operation Christmas Child, a project that collects and distributes gift-filled shoeboxes to children in need.
