The Live Your Dream Award

The Live Your Dream: Education & Training Awards for Women (formally the Women's Opportunity Award) 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.

​Each year, more than $1.5 million in education grants are awarded to more than 1,000 women, many of whom have overcome enormous obstacles including poverty, domestic violence and/or drug and alcohol abuse.

The Ruby Award

The Soroptimist Ruby Award honors women who have worked to improve the lives of women and girls through their professional and/or volunteer work. Each year SIMC honors a woman with our Ruby Award: For Women Helping Women.

​This award, previously called the Women of Distinction Award, honors women who, through their professional or personal efforts, are making a difference in the lives of other women or girls. Their work has had a significant impact, and also inspires and encourages other women.
