About WISE:
(Woman Investing in
Successful Education)
 
Hearing stories of hardship from many women we know, we felt that providing the opportunity for women to become more self-confident and self-sustaining through educational opportunities was in line with our mission. 
 
This program will not only help women obtain their GED, it will provide financial support for child care, transportation, books and exam fees. Click on the button below to help support this program.

Introducing WISE
powered by:
Soroptimist International of Phoenix
and
Fresh Start Women's Foundation
The program is offered through the Fresh Start Women's Resource Center, centrally located at 1130 McDowell Avenue, Phoenix, AZ.
The mission of the program is to remove barriers for women over 18 in obtaining their GED certification.  The "Plus" in the program will be ongoing support and coaching from the members of SI Phoenix to continue pursuing educational growth through the community college system, or professionally recognized certification programs.  



What have we done lately?

 

SI Phoenix members participated in the International Saturday of Service (SOS) event, held on March 2, 2013.  This year, the club help distribute over 200,000 diapers collected by Homeward Bound
