Save Our Sisters (SOS) is a non- profit organization that promotes urgent social change for extremely impoverished women all over the world.SOS was founded in Orlando, Florida in January 2010. SOS is an expression of an existing global movement in support of women's rights. It is not about one problem, not about one country, not even one solution, but it is absolutely about one sex - women (and girls).SOS is highly invested in understanding the global issues that face women: lack of education, sex trafficking, slavery, rape as a weapon, genital mutilation, honor killings, childhood marriage and maternal mortality. SOS has formed partnerships with well-established global women's organizations who are actively (and efficiently) engaged in supporting the problems specific to their region. SOS acts as a "feeder" organization by funneling the collective efforts of our members to the efforts of these groups, while also actively engaging in local projects.
