Says NO to Violence Against Women

For more than 100 years, Zonta International has contributed to help achieve a world free of violence against women and girls through service and advocacy.


Violence against women and girls is one of the most pervasive human rights violations and a global epidemic. It knows no national or cultural barriers; it takes place at home, in the workplace and in open spaces, and affects millions of women and girls in peacetime and conflict. It includes psychological, physical and sexual violence, and harmful practices such as rape, female genital cutting, child marriage and human trafficking. Violence against women and girls threatens countries, inhibits economic progress, and prevents women from contributing to their community and creating better lives for themselves and their families.


During the 16 Days of Activism, 25 November-10 December, we influence the making and implementation of laws, as well as changing gender-based attitudes and behaviors to end violence against women.

Zonta advocacy is action taken in "the public interest" of for "the greater good" with respect to empowering women and girls and promoting and protecting their human rights. Here is Cape Girardeau, action is taken on an international, national, and local level.

Zonta not only advocates for women's human rights and gender equality in all facets of life, we also support projects to empower women and girls to understand their rights and realize their full potential.

 

Education provides the tools and resources to empower women to make decisions about their lives and the future of their families.

We love our community. Growth and retention in membership is key to our success. New recruits that share the goals of Zonta bring new ideas and plans; retention develops knowledge and allows members to become an integral part of Zonta. Recruitment and Retention are at the heart of the membership committee.

Financial support to various organizations and funding for our many service projects is made possible through the generous support of local sponsors and our fundraising efforts. 100% of all funds that are raised are donated to the various service projects we support.
