Dear Friends of Soroptimist,

My name is Debra Garcia and I'm honored to be the 2018-2019 Soroptimist President. Our Soroptimist Club is dedicated to inspiring, empowering and changing the lives of women and girls in our community. As a community of diverse, dynamic and dedicated leaders, we empower women and girls to achieve their full potential and have an equal global voice.

This years’ theme for SI Alhambra, San Gabriel, San Marino is “Investing in Dreams” as we believe deeply in helping women and girls to achieve their dreams and become leaders for their family and in community. Our goal is to provide service to at least 100 women and girls as we provide them with the support they need to change their lives.

Our two signature Dream Programs will provide women and girls we serve the opportunity to create new pathways for themselves and truly become their own selfadvocates on their journeys toward education and career.

Live Your Dream Award program provides Education and Training Grants to assist women who provide the primary financial support for their families. Live Your Dream Awards give women the resources they need to improve their education, skills and employment prospects.

Dream It, Be It provides career support for girls and the tools they need to achieve their education and career goals. This program also empowers young ladies to to break cycles of poverty, violence, and abuse.

We are women dedicated to service to our most vulnerable women and girls in our communities and help them find their voice. If you are interested in supporting women and girls in your community…join us! We are always looking for passionate, dedicated women who are compassionate about investing in other women and girls to change our world. I hope to see you at one of our many events as we make dreams come true.

Sincerely, Debra Garcia, Ph.D. President 2018-2019
