Soroptimist North Atlantic Region – Empowering Women and Girls

Best wishes to you, Soroptimists—our region’s everyday superheroines!

Our annual Spring Conference in Washington, PA is fast approaching, taking place April 24–26, and it’s time for our league of changemakers to assemble.

I wanted to make sure every member of our incredible network received the Call to Conference. You may have already seen it shared by other region leaders—our fellow members of the communication squad. To ensure no hero misses the signal, I’m sending it out through several channels so it reaches as many Soroptimists across the region as possible.

After all, when our superpowers come together, amazing things happen.

You can also find the Call to Conference material on our website on the Home page and Resources page.

Thank you for everything you do to uplift women and girls across our communities. Every act of service, every voice raised, and every hour given is another powerful display of the incredible superpowers within our Soroptimist network.

I hope you’ll join us in Washington, PA this April as we gather, recharge our capes, share ideas, and strengthen the force that drives our mission forward.

We are all empowering her to transform our world!

Until then—keep shining, keep serving, and keep being the superheroines our world needs.

With appreciation and admiration,
Governor Beth
