Margo's journey into the field of social work was inspired by her deep-seated passion for supporting people. She has always found joy in making others' lives a little easier and ensuring that things run smoothly. After spending many years in the corporate world, Margo realized that she was missing something significant. She discovered that missing piece at ess, where her work directly contributes to serving and uplifting the most vulnerable members of society. ess generates income by offering mental health services to companies and individuals, which is then used to support the community. Witnessing the genuine care people have for each other at ess brings a smile to Margo's face daily.
