Soroptimist Live Your Dream Award

The Soroptimist 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. There are three levels of Live Your Dream cash awards. The program begins at the local Soroptimist club-level, where award amounts vary. Local-level award recipients are then considered for region-level awards of either $3,000 or $5,000. Region-level award recipients are considered for one of three international-level awards of $10,000. Students may apply for a scholarship from only one Soroptimist club.
