Everett's Zonta Club Analysis

Improved Essays
I was the secretary of Zonta International: Everett’s Zonta Club. The purpose of Everett's Zonta Club is to promote gender equality, end violence against women worldwide, and to motivate and empower youth. I took a leadership role in Everett’s Zonta Club because I wanted to spread awareness and help solve issues women around the world are facing. I also enjoyed working and networking with other individuals who share the same goals and ideas. Everett Zonta Club has allowed me to become more involved in my community through service projects and community service. Each year we plan a service project, then we gather funds, and then use those funds to do a service project -- such projects have included sewing cloth pads for women in third-world

    After participating in Delta Academy, the work done by Deltas within my community was discernible. Growing up, it was not uncommon to see Delta women toiling selflessly to make the community and world a better place. I quickly realized that in order for change to happen, you have to emulate the change that you long to see. I am a firm believer that in life, the only responsibility we have is to give back to the community. Time and time again, I find myself pondering new, innovative ways to provide my community with resources that were not available to me, or my peers, growing up.…

In addition to cutting, cleaning, and revitalizing a Habitat home, it was important for Teressa that the students and I know the people and community of Guin.
