Zonta International is a leading global organisation of professionals empowering women worldwide through service and advocacy.

Founded in Buffalo, New York in 1919, its early members were among the first generation of college-educated women, the first generation of North American women to vote, and  part of the growing, though still comparatively small, legion of women entering the workforce.

Today there are 29,000 members in 1200 clubs in 63 countries, working together to improve the lives of women and girls.
