Soup of Success is...

Empowering women through education and resources to build self-esteem, develop independence and improve quality of life. 

The SOS Community Mentoring Program is...

Continuing this mission by inviting women from the community to help create an ongoing supportive community and nurture one-on-one relationships with the women of SOS.  Our own staff member, Abbie,  co-directs the mentoring/graduate support element of SOS.  One of the newest programming developments is half hour one on one life coaching sessions.  Coaching is an excellent way for women to check in and be accountable for the goals that they have set for themselves.

Will you accept the invitation?

If you have ever managed a household, parented a child, figured out how to make ends meet, held a job, or gone to school, you have all the expertise you need to be a volunteer community mentor.

Mentors are simply those who wish to assist in another woman's growth.  It is a work of the heart.

Community mentors with SOS become part of a team.  We provide training in mentoring, career counseling, and other issues which impact SOS women. 

We ask mentors to commit to one year with our program.  Mentor activities include:

bulletReunion nights: The first Thursday night of each month, mentors and SOS participants and graduates gather to share a meal, a speaker or activity, and small group sharing.
bulletOne-on-One Match: Each mentor will be matched with a current SOS participant.  The pair will strive for 3-4 contacts per month - two in person, and others by phone, mail or email.
