Who We Are

Soroptimist International of Port Angeles

Soroptimism came to the North Olympic Peninsula of Washington State, February 26, 1944 when Soroptimist International of Tacoma chartered Soroptimist International of Port Angeles with 35 charter members. Our club has become known as the “Mother Club” of the Olympic Peninsula because four clubs were created as a result of our club. These include Soroptimist International of Sequim, Jet Set of Port Angeles, Soroptimist International of Port Townsend and the Rain Forest Soroptimist Club of Forks.

Our mission is to improve the lives of women and girls and to provide community service in Port Angeles and Clallam County. We are governed by an elected Board and we follow written bylaws for club operation and program development and implementation.
