A Special Women’s History Month Edition
March is Women’s History Month, which celebrates women's contributions to history, culture and society. As Soroptimists you give so much to the women and girls we serve, dedicating your time, mentorship and gifts. Not only is this a time to celebrate women, but to celebrate you—our strong, passionate and devoted members—as well. Thank you for all you do!
