Our mission
Zonta International is a leading global organization of individuals working together to build a better world for women and girls. We believe in making the world a better place by empowering women.
Zonta International envisions a world in which women’s rights are recognized as human rights and every woman is able to achieve her full potential. In such a world, women have access to all resources and are represented in decision-making positions on an equal basis with men. In such a world, no woman lives in fear of violence.
How we live out the mission
Ever heard the phrase “Think globally – act locally.” This is at the core of how Zonta Clubs make a difference. Our local club seeks opportunities to help and support women within our community through:
- Advocacy – communicating issues relating to women in our local area.
- Service – helping with specific women’s issues in our community by volunteering to help with everything from a home revamp for a disabled, elderly woman to gathering products for a local domestic violence shelter.
- Fundraising events – providing financial support for local women’s charities & initiatives, awards for women pursuing educational programs, as well as our international service projects.
We would love to have you partner with us to make a difference in our community and for women around the world!
