Dignity Dresses for Girls in Vietnam--Saturday of Service for International Women's Day


What a fun, and productive, Saturday of Service afternoon! Members of Soroptimist Fort Collins, our friends, and children volunteered to join forces and create 36 pillowcase dresses, fingerless mittens and scarves for less fortunate "sisters" in Vietnam. This was our club's celebration of International Women's Day, March 8.

When women on all continents, often divided by  national boundaries and by ethnic, linguistic, cultural, economic and political differences, come together to celebrate their Day, they can look back to a tradition that represents at least nine decades of struggle for equality, justice, peace and development.
