Here's what SOME employees have to say:

"I am so proud to work for SOME. I've gotten to know incredible colleagues who are dedicated to serving the city's poor and needy. I feel a sense of accomplishment when my projects help the elderly, and I know that this is purposeful work. It also feels so GREAT to be supported in my professional development. The supervisors and management team really are committed to creating growth opportunities. I've seen many staffers move up into new positions. SOME is an employer with a heart."

"I am proud to say that I work for an organization that truly cares. Every program is geared to give a person a hand up instead of a handout. It's there to give hope where there is no hope and all round exists to be a beacon of light to those who are tired of living in the dark alone and afraid. I sincerely hope that I can one day give back some of what SOME has given me because SOME is helping me also to achieve my goals. Like I said, I am proud to work and be a part of such an organization as SOME."
