Who We Are

The common thread connecting members is their aspiration to improve the lives of women and girls—an aspiration to which they lend their vast energy, insights and compassion.

Soroptimist membership celebrates the unique power of women. It’s a gift that women give to themselves: the chance to help others in an atmosphere of support, friendship and fun; to explore networking opportunities; and to develop leadership and mentoring skills.

Our Mission

Soroptimist's mission is to improve the lives of women and girls, in local communities and throughout the world.

In order to accomplish this goal, the organization administers several international programs. The organization's major project is the Soroptimist Women's Opportunity Awards, which assists women by giving them the resources they need to improve their education, skills and job prospects.
