Surf City Soroptimists of Huntington Beach would like to share this thought for the week with you.
“The best and most beautiful things in this world cannot be seen or even heard, but must be felt with the heart. “ ~Helen Keller
In my opinion, this quote embodies why we do what we do to improve the lives of women and girls.
It is from our hearts that we support Soroptimist International of the Americas’ Live Your Dream Awards, a cash grant given to a single women, head of household with at least one dependent, who is accepted or enrolled in an undergraduate program, a vocational school or a certification program.
It is from our hearts that we conduct a Dream It, Be It Program with teen girls ages 13 to 18 who face obstacles to success.
It is from our hearts that we work with others in Orange County to stop human trafficking of all kinds.
It is from our hearts that we “adopt” two single moms and their families every year and help support them financially and emotionally.
It is from our hearts that we have a “Dream Beyond” program where again, we adopt two former Live Your Dream honorees and their families for additional financial and emotional support.
It is from our hearts that we help senior women in need and more.
It is all from our hearts!
