Club Giving
SI/Whitefish gave a $20,000 contribution to Club Giving in 2016-‐2017. Join them in making a 10% club gift!
Club Giving 2017-‐2018
We are incredibly PROUD of the impact our signature Dream Programs—Live Your Dream: Education and Training Awards for Women and Dream It, Be It: Career Support for Girls—are having throughout our organization. While our impact is impressive, in SIA’s 20 countries and territories, a reported 20 million women and girls could use our help. We already know that when women are educated and given opportunity they lift themselves up, and—ultimately—entire communities benefit. That means, if all of our nearly 1,300 clubs are working together by contributing 10% of locally raised funds to Club Giving, we WILL reach many more disadvantaged women and girls. Focusing on our Dream Programs not only builds our collective impact, it also invites recognition from external funding sources and community partners that could grow our life-‐changing programs. We’re not asking you to raise more, we’re asking you to reallocate some of your funds toward these programs to create a united Soroptimist across continents, languages, and cultures. SI/Whitefish, Montana, pictured above, did a reallocation last year—and when they contributed 10% of their locally raised funds, it amounted to $20,000! We are strongly encouraging other clubs to follow the example of SI/Whitefish, and make Soroptimist YOUR CAUSE of choice. Ultimately, uniting around a common goal will benefit us ALL. Dream Programs are not funded by member dues, but by contributions such as those to Club Giving. Just as member dues do not pay for our programs, contributions do not pay for administration, governance, or member service expenses.
