Region President Sue is challenging each Club to share their most innovative or successful way of Fundraising or of Raising Awareness – or maybe one of each!
No extra work for you, just describe what you’ve already done.
Hopefully we’ll share 15 good ideas…..

Region President Sandy created a co-operative challenge linked to the charity LendwithCare. Together at a Region meeting clubs chose entrepreneurs who would receive loans towards their small businesses. Instalments for the loans are now being repaid.
In recognition of the collaborative nature of the challenge, the beautiful rose bowl is on display at each Region meeting. “Collaborate and plant the trees under whose shade we will not sit !”

Region President Pam linked her challenge to her theme ‘Rise Up and Roar’. 
Clubs were invited to describe how they have, indeed, risen up and roared. Community action? What Soroptimists stand for? Publicity initiatives? No holds barred! And the winners were … SI Manchester. Region President Pam presented the trophy to SI Manchester President Carole at the Region’s autumn meeting.
