Together for Gender Equality

Building a Better World for Women and Girls!

Our Pillars of Empowerment

Building a Brighter Future for Women and Girls

At Zonta Club of Riverside, we believe in the power of community, advocacy, leadership, and education to create lasting change. Our core pillars guide every initiative, ensuring women and girls have the support and opportunities they deserve. Explore how each pillar shapes our mission and impacts lives every day.

Advocacy for Equality

Zonta stands for women’s rights. We advocate for equality, education and an end to child marriage and gender-based violence. 

Community Support

Zonta expands opportunities for women and girls through our international education programs and service projects.  Locally we choose service projects and support our community that match the Zonta International’s mission which help us Build a Better World for Women and Girls.

Leadership Development

The goal is to encourage more young women to participate in public affairs by recognizing the candidate’s commitment to the volunteer sector, evidence of volunteer leadership achievements and a dedication to building a better world for women and girls.

Empowering Through Education

Zonta is dedicated to achieving gender equality in education and supports fellowships and awards for women and girls pursuing education and careers in these traditionally male-dominated fields.

The Zonta Club of Riverside would like to Thank everyone that joined us for our 96th Birthday Bunco Celebration on Saturday February 7th. It was a magnificent event. We couldn’t ask for anything more.

We had fun playing bunco, we had wonderful guests that brought donations for our service project for the Basic Needs Resource Center at Riverside Community College, and many guests donated monetary gifts to our club’s foundation.

We would like to thank everyone for your support. Truly this was exceptional.
