Join Us Help us to Make That Difference to Women and Girls worldwide.
We are women of all ages, from all walks of life and cultures who join together at a monthly meeting to make things happen! Soroptimist International Jersey was ‘chartered’ in December 1950, and became part of the South West & Channel Islands Region.
Meet some of our members, to see what they have to say about why they became a Soroptimist:
“I am very excited to have joined Soroptimist Jersey and look forward to taking part in some of its amazing initiatives. Having been involved in campaigns and similar organisations in the UK during my time at University, I am keen to find out more about some of the amazing work being done here in Jersey – and hopefully get involved myself. Joining the Soroptimist’s seemed like a perfect way to meet like-minded and knowledgable women, and support some of Jersey’s most worthwhile projects and causes.“

“I joined SI Jersey in 1967 waiting in those days till I was 25 years old. My Father had been a Rotarian for years and I was used to service being a key factor in both clubs. I have made an amazing number of friendships over the years and taken part in so many worthwhile projects. I feel SI Jersey has made a great contribution to pastoral care in e.g. Jersey Carers, The Refuge, supporting students with bursaries and donating funds to support many charities.”

“Soroptimist International exactly expresses itself. We are a group of women who care about local and World needs of other women and girls. Of course we care about men but we specialise on feminine issues. I was particularly attracted to the worldwide aspect of this service club. The other members were full of information, knowledge and ‘how to do it’ when confronted with family, health and social issues. I joined when under 40 and we could do with more younger members!”
