Soroptimist President Jill Boggan recently enrolled a new Crosby member.
Susanne Rogers is a chemist at Unilever working extensively in the consumer goods industry. As an Ambassador for STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Maths), Sue aims to attract more girls into science-based careers. “The world needs scientists”, she said.
President Jill, and mentor Pat Murphy, were delighted to welcome Sue as Crosby Club’s newest Soroptimist.
Later President Jill took the opportunity to thank all members for their magnificent response to her plea for donations to Sefton Baby Baskets.
Members gave dozens of items of baby clothing, hand-crafted blankets and toys, all of which will go to new mothers facing tough times.
This local charity is a feature of the Club’s service work, and is being highlighted this year. The demands on the charity’s services are expanding as it becomes more well-known in the community and as economic pressures increase.
