Serving Our Sisters Outreach

Serving Our Sisters Outreach (SOS)strives to meet practical needs and extend compassionate care to women facing difficult life challenges. The federal poverty line for a household of 2 is $15,930 and $20,090 for a household of 3. Over 1/3 of Missouri single moms live below the poverty line. In January 2018 St Louis city estimated the city’s homeless at 949, of which 355 where homeless women. Women, are facing life struggles to meet the basic essentials of life (food, housing, clothing) for themselves and their children like never before!

Serving Our Sisters Outreach annual event has served women and their children for over 10 consecutive years! SOS has partnered with shelters across the St Louis city area to provide a day of pampering to their residents. Women receive clothing, personal hygiene items, food, hair cuts, manicures/pedicures, as well as life skill teachings at this annual event. Throughout the year SOS continues to provide residents of local shelters, as well as those women in need residing outside of shelters with the essentials of life.

We partner with Calvary Missionary Baptist Church to do an outreach to unhoused mothers and children with life skills workshops and food and child care.
