SOROPTIMIST JARGONS

Having a hard time dealing with the jargons of our club?Then this is the article that would give light to your context clues solving.
To further cater in the comprehension of our readers we decided to compile and the terminologies and acronyms that can be found here in our website.
We hope this article will help you a lot in  understanding more about the works and deeds of Soroprimist International.
But before I lay down our list let me first discuss the etymology of our club's name "SOROPTIMIST".
The word SOROPTIMIST came from two Latin words "SOROR" and "OPTIMA".The latter means "SISTER" and the former means "BEST". So if we derive the meaning of Soroptimist from it's etymology this would mean "Best Sister". And indeed, every Soroptimist serves as a best sister for all of us. Currently, the Soroptimist organization,adopted the tag line "Best for Women" .
So here's our official list.

BSD CLUBS AT THE PHILIPPINE CONGRESS


It is with great honor that SI SJDM II was invited by Congresswoman Linabelle Ruth Villarica,4th District Representative of Bulacan, to attend to one of the sessions of the Philippine Congress.

The event was held last March 3,2014 at the Plenary Hall off the House of Representatives.

Congresswoman Villarica is the Chair of Committee on Women and Gender Equality at the Philippine House of Representatives.

The activity was attended by SI Bulacan South District Member Clubs. After the session, the Soroptimist ladies were treated by Congressman Villarica to a sumptuous dinner at Luk Foo Restaurant along Commonwealth Avenue Quezon CIty. 


SI SJDM GOES TO MANILA OCEAN PARK




There's this kid inside in all of us and the ladies of SI SJDM II are no exception. 


SI SJDM II went to Manila Ocean Park last March 7,2013. The trip aims to promote camaraderie among members and the ladies of SI SJDM II could not think of any other fun way to do it. 


After roaming around the theme park and watching different shows, SI SJDM II had their dinner at the Hotel H20 main food and beverage outlet at Makan Makan Aisan Food Village. The ladies were treated by wide variation of different Asian Cuisines. 


More so, accordng to SI President Nida Nicolas, they plan to conduct this kind of activities to all the club members to further establish sisterhood and friendship to members.


Truly, this is one fun experience for the ladies.
