Who Are We?
The Zonta Club of Beaudesert Area Inc. was chartered in January 1988.
We are part of Zonta International, a world-wide organisation whose aim is to build a better world for women and girls.
We are a group of likeminded women who strive to enable women and girls from all walks of life to have the opportunity to achieve a healthy and secure future.
Presently, we have 19 members. Our club offers each member, through Zonta, the opportunity to:
- Make a difference;
- Develop her leadership potential;
- Network with other business and professional women; and
- Be part of an international organisation and share friendship with other women who have common goals.
