Soroptimist International
of the American River
Serving women and girls in the Auburn area and around the world since 2010.
Soroptimist International of the American River (SOAR) is a local service club comprised of a dedicated group of women who believe in the power of empowering and enriching the lives of women and girls, both locally and globally.
OUR VISION
Women and girls have the resources and opportunities to reach their full potential and live their dreams.
OUR MISSION
Soroptimist is a global volunteer organization that provides women and girls with access to the education and training they need to achieve economic empowerment.
Soroptimist was formed in 1921 in Oakland, California, at a time when women were not permitted to join service organizations. Our name, loosely translated from the Latin, means best for women. Today, we have about 30,000 members and supporters in countries across North America, Latin America and the Pacific Rim. We are one of five federations that make up Soroptimist International, which has clubs in more than 120 countries throughout the world.
