Greetings Friend,
We are about halfway through the 2022-2024 Biennium, and I can truly say that we all have contributed greatly to building a better world for women and girls.
Our Biennial Goals, which were approved by you at the 2022 Convention in Hamburg, Germany, urged all Zontians to create a world where women's rights are human rights. As you read ahead about our achievements, please know that our success would not have been possible without your unwavering support.
Let us continue to work together and strive for even greater progress in the coming year. Thank you for your dedication to our shared vision of a world where women and girls can thrive. I cannot wait to celebrate all of this biennium's achievements with you in Brisbane in 2024!
Warm regards,
Ute Scholz

Zontians In Action
Zonta clubs are forging strong friendships with one another across the globe! Read the stories below that highlight how clubs are embracing the Zonta Spirit though their relationships with one another.
Zonta Club of New Territories II travels to Macau for a day of service
This biennium, the Zonta of the New Territories II, Hong Kong, focused on the theme, "Repair, Rebuild and Regain," to help those deeply impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
As soon as the Hong Kong borders opened, the club sent 20 delegates to Macau for a full day of service with District Governor Lia Bautista and Area 2 Director Maria So.
The club visited a local nursery supporting underprivileged children and handed out beautifully custom-designed cups and gifts from Hong Kong. They then visited a senior home and held an enjoyable "dim sum" clay-making session, which allowed the seniors to train their fine motor movements and triggered memories of their favorite food.
Corvallis High School Z Club promotes Zonta goals and causes to classmates
The Corvallis High School Z Club, USA, created banners in English and Spanish to promote Zonta's goals and causes in their school. The banners hung in the school's main halls, greeting potential new student members as they returned from spring break.
