SI3R Tools for Success Project

Our Tools for Success project helps remove barriers to education for economically challenged girls.

SI of Three Rivers works diligently and joyfully on outreach that strengthens and deepens our commitment to the local community. One of our efforts has grown into Tools for Success, a project that helps remove barriers to education for graduating senior girls who face economic challenges.

Tools for Success is an opportunity for girls in the Mid-Columbia region that helps to empower them to shape their own futures and fulfills our Soroptimist promise of Investing in Dreams.

Once again, SI3R partnered with the Kiona-Benton City (Ki-Be) School District to present five seniors each with a new computer at the school's end-of-year celebration assembly. These girls met the economic and academic criteria to benefit from Tools for Success and we are so proud of them!

Tools for Success - The Start of Something Wonderful

Tools for Success was instituted in 2024 as a community outreach project in partnership with Ki-Be school counselors. SI3R awarded seven high school senior girls a new computer to support their pursuit of opportunities in higher education or the trades that lead to economic empowerment.

SI3R is honored to give back to such a deserving community.

Congratulations!
