Soroptimist International of Salisbury

Soroptimist International is a global volunteer network of women in 130 countries and territories who work to improve the lives of women and girls.  The name Soroptimist means "best for women," and that's what the organization strives to achieve.  Our vision is for women and girls to have the resources and opportunities to reach their full potential and live their dreams.  Our mission is 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. In addition to providing women and girls with access to education, members volunteer on local projects such as providing mammograms to low-income women, teaching girls about dating violence, and supporting women who were victims of sex trafficking.

As part of a global effort, members reach beyond their local borders. Soroptimists work together to help women and girls near and far by giving them resources to improve their economic and social standing for themselves, their families, their communities and the world.  Soroptimist is a dynamic group of women who care about making the world a better place for women and girls.
