 International Women's Day March 8, 2012

Our membership chose 10 local women to honour on March 8th, International Women's Day. These women were visited by one of our members and presented with a yellow rose and a card thanking them for their good works.

Zonta Club of Sault Ste Marie Area is one of over 1,200 clubs of Zonta International, a worldwide service organization.  Founded in 1919 in Buffalo, New York, Zonta takes its name from the Lakota Sioux Indian word meaning "honest and trustworthy."  Zontians volunteer their time, talents and energy to local and international service projects that are designed to advance the status of women.

Zonta gives you the chance to be a part of something much larger than yourself...

Zonta allows you to give of yourself to others, to actively participate in the selection of service projects to help your community, and to improve the legal, political, economic, educational, health and professional status of women worldwide.

Please Join Us!

Established in 1978, the Zonta Club of Sault Ste Marie Area holds its general meetings the first Wednesday of each month.  Members relax over dinner, conduct the business of the club and socialize.  Regular attendance is encouraged.

The Club has various committees and each member is asked to join a committee of their choice.  This committee work defines the service aspect of Zonta membership.

Locally, Zonta is involved in a variety of fundraising activities throughout the year.  The funds raised flow directly into Zonta's various service projects.  All operating expense are met with membership dues.
