The Soroptimist International Club NMI Chapter is inviting the public to their next event, \u201cLive Your Dream,\u201d which aims to support the college education of a full-time mother. \u201cLive Your Dream\u201d is set to take place on Nov. 5 at Kanoa Resort Saipan. The event\u2019s highlight is the awarding of the Live Your Dream Award, which aims to financially support the awardees\u2019 family while the mother attends college.<\/p>\n
Jill Arenovski, chairperson of Soroptimist International\u2019s Way and Means Committee, highlighted the club\u2019s activities during the Rotary Club Saipan\u2019s meeting last Oct 11 at the Hyatt Regency Saipan.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur club was chartered here four years ago. On Nov. 5 we would be having our charter celebration and \u2018Live you Dream\u2019 award where we award a woman attending college primary financial support for her family,\u201d said Arenovski.<\/p>\n
Arenovski said the Soroptimist Club would be processing applicants before Oct. 15.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe advertise this fairly aggressively, and we\u2019ve contacted [women who might] possibly be interested. Our biggest success here was at NMC. Over the course of a weekend, a whole inbox of women wanted to find out about it. I\u2019ve already gotten two applications and the deadline is not until Oct. 15. We\u2019re really proud that people are getting to know this club and that word is getting out there,\u201d said Arenovski. She said that past recipients of the award will be present at the Nov. 5 event. <\/p>\n
She said the goal of the club is to empower women through education. The club does projects that support the women\u2019s shelter. Another project of the Soroptimists are the donation of books to the library at Kagman.<\/p>\n
Arenovski said a local craft fair would also be present on Nov. 5, and that those that wish to go to the craft fair are welcome.<\/p>\n
