Gather For Good: Join SOME at an Upcoming Event
Connect, Contribute, And Create Impact
Every year, thousands of SOME supporters join us at one of our signature fundraising events to raise money, awareness, and support for our efforts to break the cycle of homelessness & poverty in our nation’s capital.
Throughout the year, we offer engaging and impactful opportunities to join together with supporters, activists, philanthropic-minded participants, and leaders in the DMV region committed to this mission. Check out our full calendar of events, as well as ways to create your own event to support SOME, below.
