Everyday, Lutheran Social Services (LSS) helps thousands of people in need throughout 27 Ohio counties by addressing the four core societal issues of food, shelter, safety and healing. Organized in 1912, LSS was founded to carry on general charitable and religious work and continues to serve that very purpose today. LSS offers food through the LSS Food Pantries, housing and supportive services through LSS Faith Mission of Franklin and Fairfield County homeless shelters, domestic violence services through LSS CHOICES for Victims of Domestic Violence, senior living and health care, affordable housing communities and other services that uplift families and strengthen communities. By serving people in need, we are creating a better world.
