Welcome to Zonta International District 1
Governor's Letter
Written by Denise DeShane, Governor
The Spring Retreat days were spent with some of the most terrific women in Zonta International. Thank you for making it such a great first year for me as governor.
Highlights:
Zonta Service Recognition Award 2012-2014 was established to recognize outstanding service projects undertaken by Zonta clubs and districts which benefit women in the local community. Service projects can be those projects that improve the status of women in general (legal, political, economic, educational, health and/or professional) or those projects that prevent and fight violence against women and girls. All district projects and all club project finalists submitted by the governors will be exhibited during the 2014 Zonta International Convention in Orlando, Florida, USA. A complete description of the Award, eligibility criteria and the nomination process are attached here. Club projects must be submitted to the governor by 30 December 2013. District projects must be submitted to the International Service Committee by 10 February 2014.
Save the date: October 25 - 27, 2013 District 1 Fall Conference in Eastern MA. Details to be announced soon! Win a chance for free Registration - your Club president will have the details!
Welcome!
District 1 encompasses an area of the New England states of the U.S. and the Atlantic Provinces of Canada and was created in 1927. As a part of a global organization chartered to advance the status of women worldwide through service and advocacy, we currently have 18 active, local clubs throughout our area. Made up of executives and professionals, we meet at the local, district and international levels to adopt service projects and programs that further the objects of Zonta International.
