Financial Support for Study
The Educate to Lead Scholarship/Award is a joint initiative by Soroptimist International of North Shore and Soroptimist International of San Diego.
In its second year, this scholarship supports women who are the primary financial providers for their families. We believe in empowering women by providing financial assistance for their education, skills, and future employment prospects. The recipient can use the funds for tuition, books, transportation, or any other costs directly related to their education.
Eligibility:
• Women with dependents (e.g., children, spouses, parents, siblings, nieces, nephews, grandparents)
• Struggling to meet family’s financial needs while attending school or a training programme.
We understand the unique challenges faced by women, and our selection process considers their financial need. Applicants are required to submit a personal statement, which remains confidential and accessible only to Soroptimist Club members and award judges.
Apply between 1 June and August 15 2023, by emailing sinorthshore@siswp.org or completing the online application. For more information, visit our Facebook page: Soroptimist North Shore.
Together, let’s empower women to lead through education.

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.
We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?

Two dogs - one dead pet hen, one dead duck
There have been two dogs roaming around the waterfront properties on Pine Ridge Tce in the morning, afternoon, and late at night. They have killed two birds that I know of. One dead pet hen, one dead duck. One dog is tall, whitish, and the other is possibly black, smallish, with white blotches (sorry, the description is vague). Can the owners please control their dogs? Apart from pets on properties, the area is of ecological significance and home to endangered shorebirds. I like dogs and have had two of my own. I understand the responsibilities involved. Could the owners of the roaming dogs in the area please take measures to control them and ensure no further harm to pets and wildlife?
