Congratulations SI of Loomis Basin members for an amazing year! I applaud each and every one of you for really stepping it up in fulfilling our mission – Investing in Dreams.

Together we managed to accomplish projects, services, fundraisers and membership growth which exceeded my expectations.  You’ve all raised the BAR!  In reflection, I’ve listed a few of our accomplishments:

I’m so thankful to be a part of this amazing club. I look forward to another exciting year supporting your ideas, recognizing individual contributions and ensuring a positive member experience.

We Rise by Lifting Others, Rae

Thank you to President Rae and all the members who helped create the 79 Days for Girls sustainable sanitary kits.

We are assisting an international organization that sees menstrual health management as a matter of human rights and a critical component to achieving gender equity. To learn more, go to Days for Girls.

Chris Hebard-Summers has been a member of the Loomis Soroptimist club since 1995. “Soroptimist feeds my soul and provides me with the opportunity to impact my community both locally and globally,” said Chris. “It’s fun — where else can you work and give alongside a group of fantastic, like-minded women?”

“It doesn’t matter if we are fundraising, serving or just meeting, I always enjoy nurturing the relationships I’ve come to value so much over the years.  I love all of our projects, which is why I really like to help with fundraising so we can continue to support and enhance the lives of women and girls.”

Chris grew up in Loomis and is the third generation of her family to run their independent insurance agency, Hebard Insurance Solutions, in Loomis. For the past 36 years, Chris has helped clients protect all the things that are important to them.

When not busy at the insurance agency, or with Soroptimist, Chris enjoys working with her husband, Bill, on their small family farm. She likes gardening, canning, making cheese and bread, and milking their cow, Daisy. Best of all, says Chris, is spending time with her two grandchildren, Grant and Scarlett.
