Live Your Dream
The Soroptimist Live Your Dream Awards assists women who provide the primary source of financial support for their families by giving them the resources they need to improve their education, skills and employment prospects.
The Live Your Dream Awards offers three levels of cash awards. Eligible applicants can submit their application between August 15 – November 15. Ultimately, a Live Your Dream Awards finalist has the potential to receive up to $5,000 to help offset any costs associated with their effort to attain higher education, such as tuition costs, purchase books, obtain transportation, or find reliable childcare so she can worry less about how to pay her bills and focus on reaching her dreams. First place award recipients will be eligible for a regional award, and the regional winner then becomes eligible to receive one of three $10,000 Federation awards.
Requirements
In addition to providing the primary financial support for their families, eligible applicants must be enrolled in, or have been accepted to, a vocational/skills training program or an undergraduate degree program and must demonstrate financial need.
Soroptimist is helping women reclaim their dreams. Every year, Soroptimist distributes more than $2.9 million in education awards to over 2,000 women all over the world. You will need to complete the application form and two (2) reference forms. Access the application forms here.
