Soroptimist is a global volunteer organization that focuses on empowering women and girls through education, training, and support. Established in 1921, our organization works in over 120 countries to improve the lives of women by providing access to resources that promote social and economic development. Our signature program, the Live Your Dream Award, offers financial assistance to women who are the primary financial support for their families and are seeking education or skills training to improve their economic situation. Soroptimist members are driven by a commitment to creating opportunities that lead to sustainable change for women and girls worldwide.

At the heart of Soroptimist's mission is a belief in gender equality and the importance of education as a catalyst for transformation. By addressing barriers such as financial constraints and lack of access to education, we empower women to overcome challenges and build better futures. In addition to the Live Your Dream Award, we support a variety of programs that focus on ending violence against women, promoting health and safety, and increasing leadership opportunities. Our global network of members collaborates to create a brighter future for women, families, and communities everywhere.
