Soroptimist Clubs are made up of business and professional women who pursue volunteer leadership opportunities throughout all levels of Soroptimist. Members have the opportunity for professional growth, leadership, respect, credibility within the community, friendship, unity, and purpose through working with others to achieve common goals. Our Executive Board Members meet once a month to plan for administering and carrying out adopted policies and programs of SI/Bidwell Rancho-Chico.
