The Soroptimist International Foundation

The Soroptimist International Foundation has been set up to deliver short, medium and long-term projects internationally for women and girls.

This replaces the International President’s Appeal, which focussed on one type of project over a two year period. The establishment of the SI Foundation means that the range of projects and initiatives supported has been expanded. As long as they align with our Mission they will be considered.

With a focus on education, poverty prevention and human rights, Soroptimist International strives to foster positive change and create a more inclusive world.

Your support, whether through donations or legacy gifts, has the power to change lives and build a better world for all.
