Together, We Can Transform Lives And Build A Better Future For Us All

For Over 50 Years, SOME Has Embraced Those Too Often Left Behind

SOME is a faith-inspired organization focusing on our shared humanity and sense of community. We believe all our neighbors deserve dignity, respect, and a path forward, regardless of who they are or where they’re from. Join us as we work to end poverty and homelessness by serving, empowering, and elevating those who need us most.
