Soroptimist International, a worldwide organization for professional women, is a global voice for women through awareness, advocacy, and action.  Through International Goodwill and Understanding, and Friendship, Soroptimists strive for: advancement of the status of women; high ethical standards; human rights for all; and equality, development and peace.

 The name Soroptimist was coined from the Latin soror meaning sister, and optima meaning best. Soroptimist is perhaps best interpreted as 'the best for women'. From the founding of the first Soroptimist club in Oakland, California, in 1921, through to the present day where over 3000 clubs are flourishing throughout the world, Soroptimists have continued to strive to achieve 'the best for women' in every sphere of their lives.

With a membership ranging over the years between 25-50 active members, Soroptimist International of Reno has made up in talent and dedication what we may have lacked in size.
