Violet Richardson Month of Giving

Your gift in honor of Soroptimist's first president helps carry on Violet's legacy and provides the resources needed to invest in the dreams of women and girls for another 102 years!

On October 3, 1921...

a group of women in Oakland, California, USA, agreed to charter the first ever Soroptimist club.

These women pioneers, led by President Violet Richardson, united in their purpose to create an organization committed to improving the lives of women and girls. 

102 years later...

Soroptimist is now a global organization with tens of thousands of passionate members.

 This October, we celebrate President Violet’s incredible legacy—that Soroptimists like you continue to build upon—with the second annual Violet Richardson Month of Giving!
