Are you a high school girl interested in going to college? Do you want guidance on how to set and achieve your career goals? Would you like access to professional role models and mentors? Get the resources you need to plan your future through the Soroptimist Dream It, Be It: Career Support for Girls program, which aims to help girls grow to be strong, successful and happy adults.
Soroptimist International of St. Lucie will host a day-long conference for secondary school-age girls, where they will learn about career opportunities, setting and achieving goals, and overcoming obstacles to success. The Dream It, Be It event will take place on October 11th, 2025 at The Fort Pierce Yacht Club, from 9:30am to 4:00pm. Girls and their parents/guardians can learn more and sign up for the program at www.sistlucie.org or contacting dibi@sistlucie.org.
Throughout the day, the girls will attend sessions based on the following topics:
« Discovering your dreams
« Exploring careers
« Creating achievable goals
« Rising above obstacles
« Turning failure into success
« Balancing your stress
« Putting dreams into action
Because we don’t expect that all girls will know what they want to do for the rest of their lives and we also know that plans change, the skills developed through the day can be applied to any goals the girls identify throughout their education and careers. The girls will also have the opportunity to speak with working women whose career may interests them.

Fairways for Families Golf Tournament is a fun and meaningful way to spend the day on the green while making a difference in the lives of local families.

Enjoy a morning of competitive play with a 9:00 AM shotgun start, followed by a delicious BBQ lunch, prizes, and great company. Your participation helps provide shelter, support, and a path to independence for families in crisis. Gather your foursome and swing into action for a cause that truly matters!

Run or walk one of the most beautiful beaches on Florida’s east coast–on the sacred ground where the forerunners to today’s Navy SEALs trained for the beaches of Normandy. The 3.1-mile out-and-back beach course will start and finish on Navy SEAL Museum property on the north lawn at the Mark V Special Operations Craft. Come test your mettle on our beach course before finishing at this historic artifact.

Join us for a night of elegance and celebration as we honor the shining stars of philanthropy—those whose generosity and dedication to making the world a better place truly sparkle. "Precious Gems: Celebrating 20 Years of National Philanthropy Day® (NPD)" will be an evening where we come together to recognize and celebrate the invaluable contributions of philanthropists nominated by nonprofit organizations. 

Just like precious gems waiting to be unearthed, these individuals, businesses, and organizations have made significant, often unseen, impacts in communities across the globe. 

With an atmosphere that glitters like the gems we celebrate, the evening will be filled with inspiration, appreciation, and a commitment to continue the hunt for positive change in the world.
