Here is a quote from their website and a link to it.

SoZo Kids - sozo kids

It is believed that 45,000 people live within the borders of the Ocala National Forest, the second oldest and second largest forest in the United States, established by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1908. Within these 430,000 acres of residential land are living families and children in abject rural poverty. Recognizing this need, the Help Agency developed SoZo Kids in attempt to rescue as many families and children as possible.
So, what is SoZo? The word SoZo is a Greek word that means to rescue; to save; to heal; to make whole. With many of these families living without electricity and running water, that has become SoZo's aim... to rescue as many lives as possible through programs, events, education, love, compassion and whatever means necessary.
