Do you dream of a world where women and girls are free from violence? Where every girl in every part of the world has access to education? Can you envision what the world would look like if all women were treated as equal to men? If your answer to these questions is “YES!” then you are exactly the kind of woman we want to meet.

Social Equality Word CloudSoroptimist International of La Mesa understands the challenges that women in our community and around the world face every day and we are passionate about making the world a better place, not just for women and girls, but for everyone. Because we know that, when you help a woman achieve her goals, you help a community achieve theirs.

Soroptimist offers diverse ways for diverse women with diverse needs and even more diverse schedules to participate at whatever level works for them. Ready to jump in with both feet? Great! You should consider joining our club. Maybe your time is a little more restricted right now, but you want to help in whatever way you can…Terrific! Let us know what you can do and we will find an opportunity for you to pitch in.

Maybe you are just not at a place where you can show up physically but want to contribute in another way. We conduct several projects throughout the year where your contribution of goods would make an impact.

And, of course, your financial support is always welcome.  You can also help us raise money simply by shopping on Amazon.

Volunteer

Throughout the year we have many hands-on projects where you can get involved and make a lasting impression in the lives we touch. Here are just a few ways to volunteer:

  • Come along with the group to serve dinner to homeless women at Rachel’s Center in downtown San Diego. We set a nice table and sit with the women to celebrate a warm meal together.

Perhaps you have some skills, training or talents that could help. We always need marketing and public awareness support – including digital marketing and social media help. Tell us your talent or skill and we will find a way for you to help.

Donate Goods

Each year we get together to assemble emergency backpacks for first responders to give to survivors of human trafficking. 

We also hold fundraising events throughout the year where your donated raffle items are greatly appreciated. From small items to go into raffle baskets to larger items to be raffled or auctioned on their own – no gift is too small or too large.

Financial Support

Of course, when you get right down to it, the more money we raise each year, the more lives we can impact. Your financial support is always welcome and will be put to good use on one or more of our many service projects.
