Welcome to
The Zonta Club of
Kanata-Stittsville
The Zonta Club of Kanata-Stittsville is currently being formed.
ZONTA International is a leading global organization of individuals working together to build a better world for women and girls.
ZONTA International envisions a world in which women’s rights are recognized as human rights and every woman is able to achieve her full potential.
In such a world, women have access to all resources and are represented in decision-making positions on an equal basis with men.
In such a world, no woman lives in fear of violence.
The Zonta Club of Kanata-Stittsville was instrumental in obtaining proclamation from the
Mayor of Ottawa, Mark Sutcliffe, designating February 24th as “Human Traffic Awareness Day.”
