Soroptimists are working around the world to help women by trying to slow climate change, it’s women who deal with the everyday consequences. Women who can’t grow crops or find water for their families. Those who can’t just pop to the supermarket and complain about rising prices

SMACKDOWN ALERT: Santa tells politicians that they are on his #NaughtyList for climate betrayal, stating: "Here is the truth that each one of you know: If the Earth were a bank, it’d be saved long ago." #SaveSantasHome (and all our homes too)

Soroptimists remember and unite in the war against misogyny. They renew their commitment to equality and opportunity for women. Bracing again with renewed vigour.

Sotooda is an Afghan girl who spoke up for education and got the Taliban to reopen schools in her province.

My conversation with her and her friends reminded me of why we have hope for Afghanistan's future. ❤️
