2010 Soroptimist Ruby Award
Online Voting
 
The Soroptimist Ruby Award:
For Women Helping Women acknowledges women who are working to improve the lives
of women and girls through their personal or professional activities. Their
efforts help to promote the issues that are important to the Soroptimist
organization. Honorees are women who have worked in extraordinary ways to
benefit women and girls.
 
The program enables local
Soroptimist clubs and the Soroptimist organization to thank these women and
encourage others to explore ways to assist women and girls. The program begins
on the club level, where the type of recognition varies. Award winners at the
club level are eligible for additional awards at other levels of the
organization. The finalist receives a $5,000 donation to the charitable
organization of her choice.
 
For the first time,
Soroptimist members and friends will choose the finalist for the Soroptimist Ruby Award: For
Women Helping Women. The Soroptimist Program Council has narrowed the field to
three extraordinary finalists. Now it’s your turn to
select your favorite.
