     Zonta Club of South Bay is a branch of Zonta International, a leading global service organization founded in 1919. There are more than 30,000 members on every continent. The Zonta Club of South Bay was founded in 2020 by a small group of dedicated women who wished to expand Zonta's reach into our local community. We provide resources and support to the 1736 Family Crisis Center, a local multi-service organization aligned with the goal of Zonta to end violence against women and girls and to empower women and girls to build better lives.

Member meetings are on the first Tuesday of the month at 6:00 PM.
New Member Dues: $213.00 Annual Renewal Dues: $198.00
