    We met with Luldes Serrano, Executive Director, who gave us some background on the Good Samaritan Pharmacy and the work they do in the community. The pharmacy started in 2008, and the free clinic was added in 2015. Since the pandemic, it has been a struggle to find enough volunteers. They are looking for volunteers including high school students who need service hours, and they gave us a list of OTC needs for those who would like to donate to support their cause.
