be brave in the attempt
Secondary Charity, Share Ourselves:
The mission of Share Our Selves is to provide free emergency
assistance to those in need of basic living essentials including
food, health services, and small amounts of financial aid.
As a volunteer-based organization, SOS acts as a caring
and non-discriminating servant to the thousands of homeless
and impoverished in the community, and serves as an advocate
for increased awareness and change to address their needs.
It fosters an environment of respect and non-judgmental
compassion while maintaining the inherent dignity of the
individual.
