to local women, girls With record breaking attendance at the
Soroptimist International of the San Tans recent 27th Annual Women’s Opportunity Awards Luncheon, the nonprofit organization also gave more than $9,000 in grants and support to area women. Two high school students - Alexis LaBenz

The Soroptimists gave LaBenz $500 for her educational goals and $250 for her charity. Bonar, of Basha High School, has created
