Compassion comes from the Latin work Compati to suffer with others

In my early twenties I volunteered at Amnesty International in Chicago. I once complimented the director on how much he gave to others and he said, “I get more benefit out of it than they do.” I didn’t have enough life experience at the time to realize the depth of his statement. But now, 30 years later and after 17 years of working with kids and founding the youth charity SOS Outreach, I have been blessed and am grateful to others who have given so much to me.  I started SOS in Vail as a way…See More

Improving Quality in Out of School Programs

After spending the last week in Washington D.C. at the Up2Us (www.up2us.org) conference on sports based youth development with other Executive Directors from around the country, it is evident that we are vanguards evolving into professionals in youth development. This area is relatively young and comes with it's challenges.



At SOS we have attempted to expand capacity and impact of our programs through year round and multi year programs. This makes… Continue

SOSWorks

For the past two months our staff has been revising the SOS curriculum. Everyone has played an important role in leaving their imprints. With the internet, it is easy to research training and educational materials so that we can deliver best practices. I wanted to charge ourselves to integrate youth development, education and mental health more consciously in our programming goals. With the advent of year round and multi-year programming we needed to enhance the mentors and direct service… Continue

SOS at Outdoor Retailer This Week

SOS attends many of the manufactures shows to find resources for our community of do gooders. Outdoor sports by individuals is only a $30 Billion dollar industry but loved by us all. How every our passion for these sports need to be opened to the next generation of youth who are a much more diverse population. Remember about how much cycling, snowboarding and other passions of you have changed your life and hopefully give back to the next generation.

What a crazy first 6 months of the year. Going from winter to summer activities for the first time ever, OMG no break between seasons. I have been to Seattle, Chicago, Boston, NYC, Salt Lake City, Las Vegas, San Diego and Marco Island, FL spreading the love. And, to top it all off, we are moving our main offices this month before next month's big fundraiser -- Colorado Eagle River Ride. I am attending Colorado Ski County USA annual meeting in Boulder this week.

More videos to follow. Michelle and I looked at the footage on Friday and came up with a plan. The end result of good video is not an accident.
