Zonta Club of Ann Arbor, Michigan.

Zonta is a Sioux Indian word meaning "to band together for a purpose." The creators of Zonta International, a service organization of executive women in business and other professions, wanted the organization to represent such values as honesty, trust and inspiration. Zonta members believe by embracing in friendships and joining efforts and talents with others who are like-minded, they enrich their personal and professional lives. Through club meetings, inter-city functions, work shops, district conferences and international conferences, they also work to improve the status of women throughout the world. The Zonta Club of Ann Arbor, a chapter of Zonta International, was organized by members of the Detroit chapter on March 28, 1924 and was chartered on May 16, 1924 with fifteen members.
