Featured SI Club Projects

Soroptimist International showcases projects by clubs to highlight their impactful work, inspire others, and promote best practices across the global network. By featuring these projects on its website, social media, and publications, Soroptimist International raises awareness of key issues and celebrates the positive change driven by its members. Certificates of recognition are awarded to honour a Club’s efforts, acknowledge their contributions, and encourage continued excellence in service and advocacy.

Please tell us about the projects undertaken by your Club, Region or Union. We would love to showcase them on our website, social media channels and publications. Contact us at HQ@soroptimistinternational.org.

At the 3rd SI Africa Federation Conference & AGM in early May 2025, which took place at Agadir, Morocco, SI Club of Kisumu, Kenya was proudly recognised for its work under Soroptimist International’s key focus of education. This honour celebrates the Club’s commitment to empowering women and girls through education, mentorship, and opportunity.

The Certificate of Recognition—personally signed by SI President Siew Yong Gnanalingam—was presented by SIGBI President Ruth Healey and warmly received by Dolphine Anyango, Immediate Past President and Chair of the Club’s Scholarship and Mentorship Committee.

This outstanding achievement was also featured on the Soroptimist International website as part of our spotlight on education initiatives for the International Day of Education 2025 under the theme of Lifelong Learning. Soroptimist International awards certificates to Clubs whose work is highlighted on our website, social media platforms and our publications,  honouring their contribution to our shared mission.

SI Club Kisumu in Kenya champions education in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), empowering young women to pursue careers in these vital fields. Among the students supported are those studying Microbiology and Molecular Biology, Clinical Medicine and Industrial Chemistry. One graduate in Computer Science is now giving back to her community as a Soroptimist. Through this support, the Club is helping shape the next generation of women leaders in science and technology.
