(From Soroptimist International of Joplin)Soroptimist International of Joplin is currently accepting orders for premium, gourmet nuts, candies, and snacks during their signature annual fundraising event. Deadline for orders is October 1, 2026.
The club is again partnering with Miller Pecan Co., a family-owned business in Afton, OK. By partnering with a local producer, the club is supporting not only Soroptimist programs but also local growers.
Monies raised from the campaign will fund local Soroptimist initiatives such as:
The annual Camp Soroptimist, a recreational retreat for Jasper County children in foster care.
Live Your Dream® awards, which offer financial resources to offset costs associated with their efforts to attain higher education or additional skills.
Dream It, Be It Career Support for Girls®, giving female high school students the tools they need to achieve their education and career goals, empowering them to break cycles of poverty, violence, and abuse.
"Our annual nut and candy sale is always a favorite tradition, but more importantly, it directly fuels our mission right here in Joplin,” says co-chair Amanda Mitchell. “Every purchase from our nut and candy sale directly supports local women, girls, and foster children. By grabbing your favorite holiday treats, you're helping us fund life-changing educational scholarships, programs, and community grants right here at home."
