Women of Achievement

The Woman of Achievement Award Luncheon

The 2026 Woman of Achievement Luncheon will be held on Sunday, May 3, 2026, at 2:00 pm, at the Center for the Arts of Homer with food by Scratch Farmhouse Catering. 

This event is an annual spring luncheon honoring a local woman, nominated by her peers, who embodies Zonta's mission and, through her contributions to the community, has improved the status of women and children.

The luncheon is also a fundraiser, allowing the Zonta Club of Cortland to support organizations in the Cortland area that benefit women, girls, and children, as well as to provide scholarships to high school girls and women in the county who are returning to school to further their education.

See below for three ways you can help us support local women & children. 

Please consider purchasing an event sponsorship to support our efforts to fund programs in Cortland County. 

We encourage you to visit the Zonta WOA Event Sponsorship Campaign Page for more details.

The 2026 Event Sponsorship deadline is Friday, April 24, 2026. 

Zonta Cortland welcomes nominations of local women leaders. Nomination forms are available below for download (as a doc or a pdf). Nomination forms are also available at local libraries and at the YWCA on Clayton Ave.

The nomination deadline has passed.
