Dear Friends and Family,
Educate. Empower. Enable.
Soroptimist International of Davis (SI Davis) is part of a global organization dedicated to the education and economic empowerment of women and girls. Thanks to generous donations like yours, this year SI Davis:
- provided $12,000 in Live Your Dream awards
- mentored 14-17 year old girls at King High School through the Dream It, Be It program
- awarded $3,000 in community grants that benefit women and girls
- provided hygiene kits for women escaping domestic violence and sex trafficking
- participated in hands-on community service across Yolo County
- will award $8,000 in high school scholarships this spring
Live Your Dream award recipients are single female heads of household supporting their family members. Many recipients have lived through challenges and situations that have impacted their ability to pursue their dreams and this award helps them pursue their educational or vocational school goals. This year's top recipient escaped domestic violence and is pursuing her goal of becoming a therapist to improve her life and the lives of her five children.
Participants in the Dream It, Be It program receive career mentoring and learn job skills over the course of an academic year, while high school scholarships are given to students who have experienced and overcome hardships. SI Davis also provides grants to community agencies who provide services to women and girls.
Please consider donating to Soroptimist International of Davis. Thank you for your support!
Best,
Kim
