Become Part Of SOME’s Young Professionals’ Network and Build A Legacy

Our Young Professionals Network (YPN) is an engaged group of individuals aged 21 to 40 who support SOME as fundraisers, volunteers, advocates, and ambassadors. Since its inception, YPN has raised over $3 million to assist our neighbors in finding paths out of poverty. Its members participate in a myriad of activities, including special events, professional development programs, days of service, and volunteer initiatives.

Supporting SOME gives me the opportunity to serve others in a meaningful way. The opportunities to serve are endless, from directly interacting with clients in the Dining Room to raising funds for an incredibly well run organization. SOME has the scale to meaningfully improve thousands of lives in the Capitol Region by providing housing, sustenance, training, education, and countless other services.
