We were proud to provide three local students — Katie, Saanvi, and Analia — with $2,500 each through our Young Women in Leadership Scholarships.
These inspiring young women shared their goals, passions, and hopes for the future at our recent event, and we could not be more excited to support them as they pursue their dreams.
Here is part of a note we received from Katie following the event:
“Thank you again so much for a wonderful night. It was so much fun to meet the two other girls, and everyone from the club was so sweet and welcoming. I loved Zonta beforehand, but the meeting gave me an even bigger appreciation for all you do. It was incredible and uplifting to see the way women’s empowerment organizations work together to make the world a better place and how connected we all are.
For instance, I actually participated in Girls on the Run in elementary school! I spoke with one of the women afterward, and we had a wonderful conversation about my elementary school and the impact Girls on the Run has on kids. I am so grateful for this scholarship and support, and we will definitely stay in touch!”
Thank you, Katie, for your kind words and for inspiring all of us. The future is bright!
