Who we are?
SOM stands for The Spirit of Mesopotamia. We are a non-profit, non-political, and non-religious organization registered in California.

In a world that constantly faces challenges, the presence of compassionate and dedicated non-profit organizations becomes invaluable. Among these is SOM, a beacon of hope and transformation in our community. Through their unwavering commitment to motivate, inspire, educate, encourage, and improve the lives of the community, they have become a driving force for positive change.
Our Impact
The journey of SOM has been nothing short of transformative. Through their collective efforts, they have successfully touched the lives of countless individuals, creating a ripple effect that extends far beyond what meets the eye.

SOM strives to be the cradle of education for our community in California.
In March 2019, three Iraqi-American friends with organizational and public relations expertise had the desire of giving back to their community through a non-profit organization. After some soul searching, they realized that the diversity within our community consists of richness, potential, and strength. Founders envisioned this space to be one where community members across generations could explore the combination of individual and community in a creative and positive way.
