The Clubs in Zonta District 1

The individual Zonta Club is the basic organizational unit of Zonta International. Clubs exist to promote the objectives of Zonta International, and to initiate, adopt, and implement policies and procedures to attain these ends in their own communities, and throughout the world.

Each club establishes its own level of participation in community service projects and local programs. By participating in Zonta district conferences and international conventions, club delegates form and regulate policies and adopt international service projects.
