SASO inspires and mobilizes
boys and their mothers
to provide service and leadership that positively impacts the local communities.
Membership drive is closed for the 2025-26 SASO year.
Thank you to everyone who renewed and joined!
Look for a 'welcome email' with instructions on how to invite your son(s) to create their own accounts. Once you have submitted a paid application and have a login, you and your son will be able to view and signup for opportunities starting on 6/1 (not before).
If you have an interest in joining the board, please get in touch. We would love to welcome new members/freshmen moms into roles. Please consider joining!
Still need to purchase a lanyard? Complete this form to order. We ask that each mother and son wear a lanyard when volunteering so philanthropies know we are there!
Top 10 SASO things to know:
- SASO year starts 6/1 and ends 5/31 of following year. Access to membership application begins 5/1.
- Download the membership toolkit app from the app store.
- Volunteers should wear SASO lanyards to all events. (Lanyards are purchased through the membership application process.)
- PVSA applications will be accepted from 6/1-9/30. Please check the PVSA tab for more information.
- Check website/app for new events often! Please read our email updates too.
- PLEASE do your best to sign up for events that you are committing to attending. Our philanthropies rely on us for help, and last-minute cancellations leave everyone scrambling. If something unexpected (like an illness) comes up, please try to find a replacement. If you are unable to find someone, and you can't make the event, email the SASO contact, giving as much notice as possible. Also copy sasoboysmembership@gmail.com.
- After completing an event, sons need to record their hours. Mothers don't need to record hours.
- Mothers and sons must participate together in 3 SASO sponsored events to be eligible for renewal. After you've completed 3 events together, sons are welcome to volunteer under another mother's supervision or on their own.
- Follow, prioritize us on Facebook (facebook.com/saso.ct) and Instagram!
- Answers to many questions can be found in our FAQs.
Thank you for your support of SASO and we look forward to volunteering together!
