Partnership with A&M San Antonio!
SOS is proud and excited to announce a partnership with Texas A&M University's San Antonio campus on our Mission SOS program through SA300. The university will send three undergraduate students and a professor with us to Spain to help monitor our effectiveness and the impact of our programs. The college students will also help guide our middle and high school students through the historical research process.
We're excited to see what we can accomplish together as we investigate who San Antonio is through where we came from, and who San Antonio can be as we move forward together.

Our Vision and Mission
Summer of Service (SOS) is dedicated to education through service and travel by providing students with the opportunity to learn abroad in order to better their own communities and serve back home.
We see a world in which all young people - no matter their background - believe in their power to make a positive difference in their communities.
