Zonta International is a leading global organization of professionals empowering women worldwide through service and advocacy.
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.
Chartered in 1927, the Zonta Club of Toronto gave Zonta international status. Our founding members were outstanding women from varied walks of professional and business life. Over the years we have enjoyed the support of many important Canadians, including the Honourable Pauline McGibbon, former Lieutenant Governor of Ontario; Helen De Laporte, a pioneer in special education, Mary Eileen Hogg C.M., founder of the Ontario Crafts Council and Margaret Hyndman, O.C., D.C.L. and the second female Q.C. in the British Empire.
The Zonta Club of Toronto meets at The Toronto Lawn Tennis Club, 44 Price Street, Toronto, Ontario M4W 1Z4.
The Zonta Club of Toronto does not meet formally in July and August.
