Jezelle N. – 2016 Live Your Dream winner

“I finished my Bachelor’s degree at Howard University and went on to get my Master’s degree at Sac State. Even though it took a while for me to get my dream job, the continued support and encouragement I’ve received from your club gave me the strength to not give up. I was just offered a Senior Counselor job with the CA Dept of Rehabilitation. I’ll be evaluating the vocational rehabilitation potential and eligibility of persons with physical and mental disabilities in order to develop an individualized plan. I’m starting my new job on 9/15! Thank you for never giving up on me.”

Scarlet A. – 2018 Live Your Dream winner

“Going back to school as a single mother was intimidating and was full of financial, emotional, and mental challenges. The Live Your Dream Award not only offered me financial support while obtaining my degree, but it also validated my journey and boosted my courage to continue. I am forever grateful for the support of the Soroptimists of Rancho Cordova and Gold River, they offered me the opportunity to believe in myself, which continues to be the most meaningful gift.”
