The Aronson Foundation Donates $5K to So Others Might Eat (SOME)

Aronson LLC and the Aronson Foundation were pleased to announce that they have made a $5,000 donation to So Others Might Eat (SOME), a DC nonprofit that has “helped thousands of people get off the streets, transform their lives, and live independently.”  The donation was made as part of Aronson’s holiday party and 50th Anniversary celebration. 

“Our work wouldn’t be possible without generous support such as this gift from Aronson LLC and the Aronson Foundation.  With nearly 7,000 homeless men, women and children living in the District, there is a great need that they are helping to fulfill.”  -Fr. John Adams, President of SOME.

SOME is an interfaith, community-based organization that exists to help the poor and homeless of our nation’s capital. They meet the immediate daily needs of the people they serve with food, clothing, and health care. SOME helps 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.

Jeff Capron, Aronson LLC’s Managing Partner and President of the Aronson Foundation, commented, “SOME is an amazing group of people who for years have been a steady, committed and transforming influence on the community.  We are happy to be able to support their efforts as part of our mission of providing assistance to organizations that help make the Washington Metro area such a great place to live and work.”

The Aronson Foundation, established in 2004, is a public charity that grants charitable contributions to organizations like SOME that have dedicated themselves to providing services that enhance our community and help the people in it thrive and succeed. All of this is made possible through the generosity and enthusiasm of the partners and employees of Aronson LLC.
