The fourth sister, Dede Mirabal lived on to raise the children of her martyred sisters and tell their story which became the cornerstone in the Dominican Republic\u2019s fight for freedom from tyranny.<\/p>\n<p>In 1999, 25<sup>th<\/sup> November was declared by the UN to be the day of Elimination of Violence against Women and Girls.<\/p>\n<p>Soon the UN exhorted all partner organisations to observe the 25<sup>th<\/sup> of every month to raise awareness about this very urgent issue of the need to stop violence against women and girls. As a bright and optimistic colour, orange represents a future free from violence against women and girls. Thus, was born \u201cOrange the World\u201d out of which came this new initiative \u201cOrange Caf\u00e9 Day\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Then the Membership Party began. New Member, Nandini Dutta was pinned by Charter President Bijli Mallik who also administered the Oath. Nandini was sworn in with the Soroptimist Pledge.<\/p>\n<p>An innovative game \u201cSpot the Lie\u201d had us all in splits as each member had to make three statements about herself&#8212;two true and one untruth which had to be identified by the group.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier each member had written anonymously positive comments about three members of the club. These slips were read out aloud creating an upsurge of morale and positivity. Honest praise can work miracles! Delicious refreshments were heartily relished by one and all.<\/p>\n<p>The day will be remembered for a long time. Fun, fellowship, and food\u2026what more do sisters need to steer them along as they work as Soroptimists?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4827 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/south-kolkata\/files\/2023\/05\/the-organisers.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"492\" height=\"910\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/south-kolkata\/files\/2023\/05\/the-organisers.jpg 492w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/south-kolkata\/files\/2023\/05\/the-organisers-162x300.jpg 162w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 492px) 100vw, 492px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Humongous thanks to Ruby, Mohua and Ranjana!!!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4825\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/south-kolkata\/files\/2023\/05\/New-Member-Nandini-being-inducted.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/south-kolkata\/files\/2023\/05\/New-Member-Nandini-being-inducted.jpg 960w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/south-kolkata\/files\/2023\/05\/New-Member-Nandini-being-inducted-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/south-kolkata\/files\/2023\/05\/New-Member-Nandini-being-inducted-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4826\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/south-kolkata\/files\/2023\/05\/Orange-Cafe-Day_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"439\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/south-kolkata\/files\/2023\/05\/Orange-Cafe-Day_n.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/south-kolkata\/files\/2023\/05\/Orange-Cafe-Day_n-300x129.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4823 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/south-kolkata\/files\/2023\/05\/Early-Birds_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"740\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/south-kolkata\/files\/2023\/05\/Early-Birds_n.jpg 740w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/south-kolkata\/files\/2023\/05\/Early-Birds_n-300x234.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The venue was decked up in orange balloons and streamers, SISK Banner, and Standee while&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":829,"featured_media":4824,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4821","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-events"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 -
