LiveYourDream.org is an online volunteer and activist network with the intention of providing opportunities to improve the lives of women and girls through education and training awards.

Powered by the Soroptomist, a women's volunteer organization, Live Your Dream offers $1.7 million in education grants annually. The grants are awarded to over 1,300 women, many of whom have overcome enormous obstacles including poverty, domestic violence, the death of a spouse and/or substance abuse.

Potential cash award levels are broken down into the following categories –

First Level: Over 1,300 women are selected to receive up to $1,000

Region Level: Over 100 first-level recipients are selected to receive an additional $3,000 or $5,000

International Level: 3 region-level recipients are selected to receive an additional $10,000

If you would like to further your education or know someone who does, applications are accepted July 1 - November 15.
