The Programme areas defined by Soroptimist International to align with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are the 5 Ps:
Peace, Planet, People, Prosperity, Partnerships
The work the Club does on Prosperity is via the Lend With Care microfinancing project, administered by the Club’s Treasurer.
Partnerships – this is the work we do with outside organisations so this Programme area goes across all of our work.
