Dear Friends,

The Zonta Club of Mississauga welcomes you to attend one of our meetings with an eye to joining the wonderful fellowship of Zonta! As someone who joined this club in 1989, I can tell you that my life is richer by being a Zontian. It is deeply satisfying to know that you are able to join hands with a dynamic group of women to enrich projects and programs that improve the quality of life for women. Helping women leads to helping families and communities!

Zonta International is almost 91 years old. The Zonta International Foundation is the international service arm. It is recognized by the UN for its long-standing consultative role and funding for very meaningful service projects to improve the status of women. To learn more, please visit: www.zonta.org.

Our Mississauga Club is edging closer to 40 years soon. Last year, with help from our member Dr. Linda Pickard, a leadership and business consultant, we approved and embarked upon a new Five Year Strategic Plan to meet our five key objectives to achieve greater results:

• Greater and more diverse membership
• Smart use of Technology
• Creative partnerships
• Alternative Funding approaches for our Club and service projects
• Become better known for what we do and stand for

If you share our passion for advancing the status of women, please contact me at president@zontamississauga.org to attend one of our monthly meetings.

Sincerely,
Atiya Ahsan, President
Zonta Club of Mississauga
