Our Soroptimist Pledge:
The Soroptimist mission is to aid women and children. In addition to our Live Your Dream project, we also support multiple local agencies. This year is our club’s 43 rd year of making a difference in the lives of women and children in our community.
- Victims of Human Trafficking— we provide clothing and backpacks with school supplies and personal toiletries. Our club recently raised over $19,000 with a fashion show partner to help victims survive their trauma.
- High School Scholarships—we annually award four high school scholarships to seniors at Ponderosa and Oak Ridge High Schools of $1000 each.
- Live Your Dream Award—we fund up to $5000 in awards to women in school who are the primary support for their families.
- Folsom Lake College Scholarship—we award $500 to a student needing extra assistance to complete his/her goals.
- AAUW’s Tech Trek—we provide two scholarships for a 7 th grade girl to attend a week long camp at UC Davis, focusing on STEM.
- Adopt-A-Family—we partner with The Center for Domestic Violence to provide Christmas gifts for families.
- Youth Homelessness Project—we are partnering with the McKinney Vento coordinator in the Rescue Union School District to provide for identified needs of homeless children.
