Soroptimist International of Metropolitan Sacramento reached another milestone on April 6, 2018 ... 35 years of service to the Sacramento Region and beyond! Over 75 SIMS members, former members and guests attended an evening celebrating SIMS' successes and the impact on our community of women and children that benefit from the generosity of our members and those who support our efforts.

Once again, Soroptimist International of Metropolitan Sacramento (SIMS) is participating in Big Day of Giving (BigDOG) the 24-hour region-wide fundraiser. The funds raised by SIMS will go into our Community Assistance Fund (CAF) to be awarded to local non-profits supporting women and children in the Sacramento Region. 

Now is the time to ask your colleagues, friends and family to support us and, in turn, make a difference in the community.

The Live your Dream Award assists women who provide the primary source of financial support for their families by giving them the resources they need to improve their education, skills, and employment prospects. The Award  is one of the key programs across the country. Soroptimists award over $1.5 million dollars in scholarships each year.

Every year, thousands of children in the Sacramento area get to spend a week at an innovative science camp in the scenic Eldorado National Forest. Too many local kids miss out on such opportunities because their families can’t afford the cost. Such is the situation for students at Ethel Phillips Elementary School in south Sacramento. Read how SIMS is changing that story, and help us send kids to camp.
