WOA’s New Partner – SOROPTIMIST Dnipro

This afternoon WOA’s long-time volunteer Mr. Joseph introduced us to a new partner – the Dnipro filial organization of the SOROPTIMIST International and its Head – Ms. Svitlana.
Founded in 1921 in Oakland, California, United States, SOROPTIMIST International (SI) is a worldwide volunteer service organization for business and professional women who work to improve the lives of women and girls, in local communities and throughout the world. The organization seeks equality, peace, and international goodwill for women.
The organization comprises approximately 95,000 members in more than 125 countries and territories worldwide who contribute time and financial support to community-based and international projects. Soroptimist members belong to local clubs, which determine the focus of service to their communities.
The name "Soroptimist" was coined by combining the Latin words soror "sister" and optima "best", and can be taken to mean "best for women".
The WOA Dnipro staff arranged a DOUNB Library Tour for Mr. Joseph and Ms. Svitlana. We hope for the future partnership and cooperation with this international community of people.
Participant number – 3  persons.
