What will you experience when you join Zonta? What do you learn? Who do you meet? Why should you consider a Zonta membership? Here’s what a few of the Leelanau County Zontians had to say when asked what they would tell a prospective member about their experience as a Zonta member.
“Zonta has given me the opportunity to come in contact with really dynamic women from all over the county and beyond, even internationally. It brings you into contact with women from different professions and has allowed me to meet wonderful people who have become personal friends.”
“Zonta allows you to act locally but still have influence globally. Much has changed in the status of women since I began working in 1972, but there is still so much to be done. I believe each generation has a responsibility to help the next generation find ways to fulfill their greatest potential regardless of gender. Zonta helps open the door of opportunity for young women.”
“I joined Zonta to help advance the status of women and I want you to know it has advanced the status of this woman.”
“When I retired from my teaching career down state and moved to Lake Leelanau in 2000, I knew I wanted to become involved in an organization that allowed me to make friends with women in my new community and volunteer my time to civic projects that would benefit my community and make the world a better place to live. I especially enjoy working on Career Day for eighth grade Girls in Leelanau County.”
