What people say.

Zonta’s scholarship gave me the confidence and the means to finish my engineering degree. I wouldn’t be where I am without them.

Amara N. — Women in STEM recipient

Joining this club connected me with extraordinary women and gave my volunteering real purpose in the community.

Helen R. — Club member since 2018

The birthing kits our club assembled reached mothers who had nothing. Knowing that is why I keep showing up.
