SoaP's main activity is a yearly therapeutic essay contest that acts as a soul-mending safe space for sharing the - often traumatic experiences. SoAP fosters creativity, power of imagination and finding healing through storytelling.

Top Challenges

Technology

Although we’ve worked with an amazing group of engineers to get our beta up and running, we are keeping an eye out for a passionate CTO who cares deeply about education, access, and the wellbeing of our users.

Sustainability

Sustainability. As a nonprofit, SoAP depends largely on donations and grants in its early phases. Additional corporate and organization collaborations, as well as strong public relations, are necessary for this project to successfully operate.

Forming a network of philanthropists

Forming a network of philanthropists. Governments, embassies, the United Nations, and in my opinion Moonshot have all provided significant support, allowing us to just big-brain the project but more is needed
