Our Mission
COMMUNITY. FRIENDSHIP. OPPORTUNITY.
EVERY SINGLE INDIVIDUAL HAS THE POWER TO CHANGE THE WORLD. ALL ONE NEEDS IS THE CHANCE. OUR MISSION AT SOUL PURPOSE NY IS TO PROVIDE THAT OPPORTUNITY. WHEN JOINING OUR WARM AND VIBRANT COMMUNITY, PARTICIPANTS DISCOVER A HOME AWAY FROM HOME. A PLACE WHERE LIFELONG FRIENDSHIPS ARE MADE. A PLACE WHERE EACH INDIVIDUAL CAN EXPLORE WHERE THEIR PASSIONS AND SKILLS LIE. A PLACE WHERE, BY WORKING TOGETHER, EVERYONE HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO PURSUE THEIR CALLING, AND SPREAD THEIR WINGS AND FLY.
WE'VE ALL GOT SOUL TO GIVE.
In Dedication to the Rebbe
RABBIÂ MENACHEM MENDEL SCHNEERSON
Soul Purpose New York's mission is based upon the vision & teachings of the Rebbe. The Rebbe believed that every person has their own unique capabilities which they can use to lead a life of meaning and purpose. All one must do is tap into their inner soul.
The Rebbe continues to inspire thousands of people around the world. May his memory be blessed.
