"Soroptimist means "best for women" and that's what we strive to bean organization of women at their best helping other women to be their best," said Dede Olson, Club President. As a volunteer organization of business and professional women we feel uniquely qualified to help women and girls live their dreams. It's true that both men and women live in poverty, face discrimination and must overcome obstacles. But throughout history in every country in the world women and girls face additional obstacles and discrimination solely because of their gender.
