Our annual "Steps to Success" Shoe Project event was cancelled due to coronavirus, but the Soroptimist Oakland Club members found a way to make a difference in the lives of East Oakland elementary school students. Many of the students at the two schools where we provide the mentoring project can't participate in online learning opportunities because their families don't have computers. Soroptimist of Oakland-The Founder Club is proud to have donated 60 Kindle Fire tablets to help fill that gap. Please consider making a donation to the Shoe Project.
We're excited to announce our new member Jacqueline Cisneros (center)! Here's Carolyn Bolton (left) installing her at our 1/23/20 meeting with her sponsor and sister Khadija Fredericks. Welcome, Jacqueline!
