The name, Soroptimist, means "best for women," and that's what the organization strives to achieve. We are women at our best, working to help other women to be their best. 

 

We are an international volunteer organization for business and professional women who work to improve the lives of women and girls through programs leading to social and economic empowerment.

 

Soroptimist members belong to local clubs, which determine the focus of their work in their communities. Club projects range from renovating domestic violence shelters and providing mammograms to low-income women, to sponsoring self-esteem workshops for teenage girls. 

 

Soroptimist of the Americas is a network of women in 1,300+ clubs in 20 countries.
