We are women, from different professions, ages, races, religions, countries and cultures but all o have a social conscience, which is why we joined Soroptimist International, a worldwide organisatio for women in management and professions, working through service projects to advance human rights and the status of women. We are committed to a world where women and girls together achieve their individual and collective potential, realise aspirations and have an equal voice in creating strong and peaceful communities worldwide.
Soroptimist International was founded in 1921, when eighty women formed the first Soroptimist club in Oakland, California. Since then, membershi has grown to over 90,000 women across the world. This makes us the world’s largest classified servi organisation for women. The Wakefield Soroptimist club was founded in 1934.
Membership is by invitation only, but if you are interested in joining, please contact us. Wakefield are proud to be the home club of the 2010-11 SI Yorkshire President Mrs Judith Alce
