Mission

SOME was founded by Father Horace McKenna, S.J. and an interfaith group of priests, ministers, and lay persons in 1970 to help the poor and destitute of Washington, DC. Food is still what SOME is best known for, and, indeed, more than 900 meals are served each day by a large network of community volunteers from local churches, synagogues, and civic organizations. We meet the immediate daily needs of the people we serve with food, clothing, and health care. We help break the cycle of homelessness by offering services, such as affordable housing, job training, addiction treatment, and counseling, to the poor, the elderly and individuals with mental illness.
