Soroptimist International American Canyon 2018

We are a global volunteer network of women working to improve the lives of women and girls. The name Soroptimist means Best for Women, and that’s what our organization strives to achieve. Soroptimists are women at their best, working towards helping other women to be their best.

Local projects include working to decrease isolation among seniors, increasing awareness regarding sex trafficking and domestic abuse, and mentoring high school girls. We sponsor self-esteem workshops to help girls reach their full potential, respond to the ongoing needs and events of the community, and collaborate with the City and other community groups to further our mission. We provide monthly events in person or online for seniors and monthly and annual scholarships and recognition to high school girls who are exemplary volunteers, to women who are head of household and attending college or trade school, and to women who are going through a particularly difficult time.
