President's Message
What a privilege to be the Zonta Club president this year. In my 8 years with Zonta I have watched us challenge ourselves more and more each year so that we can change lives. I am always inspired by all the things we accomplish in our club.
Inspire – What a powerful word. There are many ways to describe this word. This sketch incorporates three important parts of this word for me.
-The upward arms show that we inspire others with our positive upward actions.
-The layers show that we affect not only one, but many
-The movement shows that when we inspire, we ‘Pay it Forward’
I look forward to this upcoming year; working with our wonderful board, changing lives, and being inspired by everyone everyday. Remember we inspire as individuals, but we also inspire as group. So I hope you will support each other and look around you and see the things that inspire you everyday.
