The Live Your Dream Awards offers three levels of cash awards. Ultimately, a Live Your Dream Awards recipient has the potential to receive an award to help offset tuition costs, purchase books, get transportation, or find reliable childcare so she can worry less about how to pay her bills and focus on achieving her education dreams. Applicants must be providing the primary financial support for themselves and their dependents. Dependents can include children, spouse, partner, siblings and/or parents. Applicants must be enrolled in or have been accepted to a vocational/skills training or an undergraduate degree program. They must be motivated to achieve their education and career goals. Applicants must also reside in one of Soroptimist International of the Americas' member countries/territories: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, Ecuador, Guam, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Northern Mariana Islands, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines, Taiwan, United States of America, Venezuela. They must not previously have been the recipient of a Soroptimist Women's Opportunity or Live Your Dream Award. Applicants must not have a graduate degree and are not pursuing one currently. Applicants must not be a Soroptimist member, an employee of Soroptimist International of the Americas or immediate family of either. They must write their essay without the use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools. Applicants must submit an online reference form from two references who can be their mentors, teachers, counselors, supervisors, colleagues, or case managers. Only one reference is required. The second is optional but will make the application stronger. Please visit the award's website for more information.
