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.
