Soroptimist Signature Project 2010-2012
PageTurners: Girls Who Read to Achieve
...is building a network of after school book clubs to empower at-risk middle school girls to become self-aware leaders in their communities while improving their reading and critical thinking skills. PageTurners implemented 10 book clubs in six schools in Dorchester, Somerset and Talbot counties and Baltimore City during the 2010-2011 school year and will nearly triple those numbers in the coming year.

What's it all about? What's the big deal?
It's about global awareness. It's about our "Friendship Link." It's about international goodwill and understanding and getting to really know our Ukrainian Sisters in Soroptimist. Six years ago we enjoyed their first visit here. On two occasions in 2003 and 2007, six SITC members and a daughter enjoyed Ukraine's "Satin Season." What an adventure! And, it's not all about travel - it's an education and a great warm feeling of Soroptimist friendship. Please help us when the time comes. Volunteer to help with a tour or a dinner or lunch. Cruise to Bermuda is being raffled, tickets are on sale now and the winner will be drawn at our Winter Dance in February. Please contact Barbie Smith to purchase your raffle tickets, 410-822-5926.
