Some Other Place was founded in 1968 by the local religious community to meet the unfulfilled emergency needs of the poor and "hurting" residents of the Beaumont community. When no one could help, they were told they had to go to some other place...thus, the name Some Other Place. It allows people to have somewhere to go when all else fails. All S.O.P. services are offered at no charge to the recipient.  S.O.P. is funded solely by donations from concerned people of local religious congregations, business and civic groups and individuals.  We are staffed by hundreds of volunteers and supported by a limited staff of people who are putting their faith to work.  Services include:

• Emergency Services (short-term, limited assistance with life’s basic needs)
• Meals on Wheels (home-delivered meals for home-bound)
• Henry’s Place (day center for the homeless.  Over 3,000 unduplicated homeless individuals make over 11,000 visits to Henry’s Place each year for breakfast, showers, laundry services, and access to an address and telephone.) 
• Miriam B. Rogers Community Center (houses all of Some Other Place’s special programs.  It is also available at no charge for agencies and organizations that serve Some Other Place clientele at no charge for meetings and supportive functions.)
• John Terry Moore Thanksgiving Store (families “shop” for Thanksgiving Day meal)
• Anne Rogers Vaxler nutrition Center ("soup kitchen," which provides a hot meal to those in the local community who need this service.)
• Each year Some Other Place provides new school clothing and school supplies for approximately 1,000 children of families served by Some Other Place.  Other school related services are also provided.
