RECOGNITION PROGRAMS FOR WOMEN
image of an award ribbon The Women's Opportunity Awards Program was established by Soroptimist International of the Americas in 1972 to assist women entering or re-entering the workforce in obtaining the education and skills training they need to improve their employment status. Women's Opportunity Awards are designed to give women heads of household, who provide the primary source of financial support for their families, the opportunity to achieve their career goals-an opportunity they have not previously had, whether because of economic or social barriers, or personal circumstances. These awards are for women who are attending, or have been accepted to a vocational/skills training program, or an undergraduate degree program. The cash awards may be used by recipients for any expenses related to their education.

Eligible applicants must be female heads of household, who are enrolled in or have been accepted to a vocational/skills training program or an undergraduate degree program. Applicants must demonstrate financial need, and cannot have already earned an undergraduate degree. Recipients of this award at the local club level may be eligible for a higher award at the regional level.
