Soroptimist International Esperance was chartered on December 9th 2018 and is the newest of the eight Soroptimist Clubs in Trinidad and Tobago. We encourage openness to new inspiring ideas in developing club projects, succession planning and retention of membership. The club member’s ages range from 92 to 27 and bring a unique blend of Soroptimist experience and effervescent youth. We may be the newest club, but we bring with us 172 years of service as Soroptimists.
‘Esperance’ is French for Hope, and by Educating, Empowering and Enabling opportunities through service, we will bring ‘Esperance’ to women and girls in rural areas.
Between September and November 2018, as The Proposed Soroptimist Club Esperance, the following projects were held:-
Literacy Project in Esperance
Free Legal Aid Clinic
Girls in Aviation Project
‘Men in Pink’ ~ Breast Cancer Awareness
Between Chartering in December and March the projects were:-
