We Are Soroptimist
Helping women and girls live their dreams
Soroptimist UpliftHER focuses on an obstacle that women and girls face on their path to formal education and economic empowerment. Focus of October-December: “Intimate Partner Violence”
We believe educated women and girls are:
Our Core Values
Gender Equality
Women and girls live free from discrimination
Empowerment
Women and girls are free to act in their own best interest
Education
Women and girls deserve to lead full and productive lives through access to education
Diversity & Fellowship
Women from varied backgrounds and perspectives work together to improve the lives of women and girls.
The Core Project of Soroptimist Canada West Online Club: “Truth and Reconciliation”
Truth Before Reconciliation Learning Circle
We are educating ourselves about the Indigenous impact of colonization so that we can be better allies, and better guests on these lands.
We meet on the second Saturday of the month, from 9:00 – 10:00 Pacific, to share our responses and reflections about the material we’ve covered.
So far we’ve engaged with
* Honour to Senator Murray Sinclair, a 30 minute film from the National Film Board that summarizes the process and learnings of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission
* 4 Seasons of Reconciliation, a 10-part free course available from the Business Development Bank, that delves into what steps individuals and businesses can take to further reconciliation.
* Home On Native Land, from RAVEN, a free 11-part course that brings Indigenous laws and rights to life
