Dear Berkeley High Students:

The Violet Richardson Award is Soroptomist International of the Americas’ leadership and volunteer recognition program dedicated to teen girls, ages 14 years- 17 years. Soroptomist International of Oakland is one of nearly 1,400 clubs that make up Soroptomist International of the Americas, a global women’s organization whose members volunteer to improve the lives of women and girls through programs leading to social and economic empowerment.

The Violet Richardson Award recognizes young women leaders who make the community and world a better place through volunteer efforts. Volunteer actions that benefit women or girls are of particular interest. Although we realize that volunteering is its own reward, we also know the power that positive reinforcement brings, especially in supporting and encouraging young women to continue their work as a community leader.



Please click here<http://www.soroptimistoakland.org/education-awards.html> for the emailable Soroptomist Violet Richardson Award application due November 15, 2017, including an essay of up to 750 words.



Sincerely,



Khadija A. Fredericks, Chair Soroptomist Violet Richardson Award
Soroptomist International of Oakland
