The Long Term Project concept was developed in 2008 as part of Soroptimist International’s strategic planning process and is a project that will be owned and operated by SI. This project was launched at the SI Convention in Montreal in 2011 replacing the Quadrennial Project.
SI looks forward to launching a Soroptimist project that is designed, managed and operated by Soroptimists and Soroptimist staff that will change the lives of women and girls and will:
•Appeal to existing and future members
•Have clearly stated objectives and measurable outcomes
•Be evaluated regularly and updated and revised as needed
•Be appealing to outside funders and the media
•Provide potential for partnerships at all levels
•Reflect the mission and purpose of Soroptimist and contribute positively to the Soroptimist brand
