Samaritan: Funding, Investors & Team (Oct 2026)

Samaritan is a support platform that empowers people without a home to move forward. Samaritan distributes low-energy beacons, about the size of a quarter, to individuals in need through nonprofit shelters (starting with the Union Gospel Mission in Seattle). These tiny beacons create an incredibly efficient way to give. If users have the Samaritan app and pass by or meet a beacon holder, they will receive a simple notification with the opportunity to give or learn of the person's journey. If the user decides to donate, the beacon holder can then spend the money at select merchants or through a nonprofit counselor on things that can truly help (warm clothing, transportation, a good haircut, and more).

About FundedIQ's Samaritan Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Samaritan is left off this page rather than filled in.
