Why does SATO make me smile?

I smile when other people smile. It's infectious, really. The feel-good feeling of helping someone else, making a real difference in someone's life, is the stuff of SA/TO.

To really make an impact on the world, we must always strive to do more. There are endless opportunities to repair the world. You have two hands and one mind … that's three tools to use to make a difference. So get out there and help.

You can start on this website, which has projects in your area, activities you can do in your chapter, and the contact information for your regional and international SA/TO committees. Soon, we'll have more ways for you to allocate and donate, an events calendar, and special websites for you to make a difference with the click of your mouse. Now go out and make your mark on this great, big, beautiful world we live in!
