During the COVID-19 pandemic we continue to be guided by our mission statement above. How we accomplish this has changed. We hold Zoom meetings bi-weekly using phones, computers or tablets. Please join us for the next meeting. We have suspended Communications Group meetings. Operation Streamline is closed in Tucson. Desert searches and water drops continue but with less frequency. To relieve the increased level of migrant suffering due to the pandemic and recent immigration enforcement practices, consider donating to one of these Resources for Immigrants and Migrants or to the GVS Samaritans. Here are ways to Join GVS Samaritan Activities now. Thank you.

We respect human rights and one's ethical responsibility to those who are suffering.

​The map at the right shows where migrants died in the Southern Arizona desert in 2019. Over 3,000 migrants have died in Arizona since 2000 according to this Red Dot Death Map. A Warning Map shows the dangerous trek north. Still, this does not deter people who are escaping life-threatening situations.

What Will I Do Without You?

Family members give hand-embroidered tortilla cloths, or bordados, to their loved ones for their northward journeys. Samaritans have found many in the desert. Too many loved ones go missing in the desert...too many have died.
