Zonta Club of Miami Lakes aids local women's charities

Community Wednesday, June 18, 2014

 

Zonta Club of Miami Lakes presented donations to three local charities at its May general membership meeting. Proceeds from the annual fundraising event, Claws for Celebration, were presented to Lotus House, Women’s Breast Health Initiative, and Casa Valentina.

Each year club members choose several community organizations as benefactors of its signature Stone Crab dinner. This year’s event was under the direction of long time club member Jan Hammond and raised more than $26,000 for the support of local non-profits focused on the advancement of women and for Zonta International.

The Miami Lakes club is part of Zonta International and meets monthly to coordinate service projects and fundraising activities. For more information, visit online at www.zontamiamilakes.org.
