Thank you for visiting this page to learn more about sponsoring our upcoming Zonta Woman of Achievement Luncheon!
Your support of this crucial fundraiser with an event sponsorship will help improve the lives of women and children in our community.
Your sponsorship will directly support projects at local nonprofit organizations that align with Zonta’s mission of empowering women and girls. The 2024 Service Award grantees included the Cortland Free Library’s Dolly Parton Imagination Library, the League of Women Voters of Cortland County’s Students Inside Albany Conference, and YWCA Cortland’s Aid to Victims of Violence and G.E.M.S (Girls: Empowered, Motivated, and Successful) services.
The annual Woman of Achievement Luncheon honors a local community member who is committed to and embodies Zonta’s mission. Last year’s Woman of Achievement honoree was Lisa Hoeschele, Executive Director and CEO of Family & Children’s Counseling Services. During the luncheon we also celebrate our education scholarship recipients, which include two local graduating seniors and a mature woman who is continuing her education. We look forward to honoring equally amazing women at the 2025 luncheon, and YOU can help make this happen.
Since the Zonta Club of Cortland was chartered in 1973 as a service organization for women in business and other professions, its members have focused on fundraising to support area projects that share our goals. The Woman of Achievement Luncheon is the Zonta Club’s major fundraising effort every year and it is the support of our local business community that generates the funds needed to provide Service Award grants to the above-mentioned nonprofits and other groups like them. We should also note that Zonta does not retain any of the funds raised through the luncheon; it uses them to meet ever-growing community needs.
We greatly appreciate your kind and generous sponsorship of the 2025 Woman of Achievement Luncheon. Your support of our luncheon fundraiser reinforces the commitment of our local community to provide programs for women, children, and families in need. And it gives your organization the visibility and recognition it deserves! We look forward to partnering with you and promoting your business.
Sincerely yours,
Zonta Club of Cortland
