We heard at the 2014 SIA Convention that the Violet Richardson Award is no longer being supported at the federation level. Actually, the only change is that there won't be a federation winner. Founder Region is still supporting this program - materials will still be on the Soroptimist International of the Americas website (see the link below). Clubs can still accept applications until 12/1/14 and then submit their applications to the region. The deadline for submitting to the region will be 2/1/2015. Details for where to send your applications will be provided later - we are still working that part out.
The new "Dream It, Be It" girls program is now available and you will be hearing more about this at the upcoming District Meetings. There is a committee in place that will serve as a resource for clubs. Check out the Founder Region Roster for contact information. There is a "Club Planning Toolkit" available on the SIA website that will help clubs assess the need in their community and plan a project.
