Review for Single Mothers Outreach Inc, Newhall, CA, USA
As a single mother that moved to Santa Clarita in 2006, I was and still am amazed at how a God sent, an amazing organization has given to our communty in such big ways. When I had not enough money for Christmas for my son and SMO poured out their giving heart to make sure my son had 3 great Christmas by partnering with churches, retailers, and personal donations, all I could do was be appreciative and have cried alone in my bed for such kindness many times. When it was mothers day every year, SMO had gone beyond my expectation to make us mothers feel sooo good when our children wanted to also see us as mothers happy and celebrate with our children. The best mothers day for me is when SMO treated the mothers to Magic Mountain and fed us. I was so honored and amazed again. SMO has gone out their way for the summer months to put together some events at the park with our families to enjoy the parks musical talents. The resources for educating parents that desire to achieve, and improve their lives from SMO has been excellent experiences for building our self esteem and our determinations. SMO has shared job opportunites for some of the mothers who needed job seeking help. SMO is an organization that is rare, and appreciated. Had it not been for SMO, I would have had more sad days and holidays, but I thank God for SMO who really cares for the moms in the Santa Clarita community.

Ways to make it better...
SMO needs more grants to dedicate themselves more to the increasing clients
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
lack of funds to be the things they generally can do. However, in 2010, SMO has been in great need for a larger grant. The reason I say this because SMO has not been able to do what they have done this year from certain event
One thing I'd also say is that...
SMO is an organization any single mother would wish to have in her community as well.
