🌈💛 The Zonta Club of the Marquette Area was proud to be part of Pride Fest in Marquette!

What a wonderful day celebrating diversity, inclusion, and the strength of our community. We enjoyed connecting with so many people, sharing information about Zonta's mission, and supporting a world where everyone is valued, respected, and empowered.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth, shared a smile, and helped make the day so special. Together, we continue working toward equality, opportunity, and a brighter future for all.

We’re proud to spotlight members Kim, Holly and Molly of the Zonta Club of the Marquette Area at Marquette County Habitat for Humanity and ReStore Women Build 2026! 💛🔨

As this year’s Event Sponsor, Zonta members didn’t just support Women Build — they showed up ready to work, volunteer, encourage, and help build a stronger community for local families.

Their dedication to empowering women and improving the lives of others shines both on and off the build site. We are incredibly grateful for their partnership, leadership, and hands-on commitment to affordable housing in Marquette County.

Thank you, Zonta Club of the Marquette Area, for helping us build hope, strength, and stability — one wall, one nail, and one family at a time. 🏠✨

We’re proud to celebrate the leadership and dedication of our local Zontians who continue to serve women and girls not only in our community, but throughout Michigan and beyond.

Earlier this month, members Luci Contois and Kim LeTourneau attended the Zonta International District 15 Governor’s Reception hosted by the Zonta Club of Midland. The event recognized Luci as she completed her two-year term as Area 1 Director and welcomed the new District 15 Board of Directors — including Kim, who is beginning her own two-year term as Area 1 Director.

Thank you, Luci and Kim, for your willingness to lead, serve, and represent the Zonta Club of the Marquette Area at the district level. We are grateful for members who step forward to strengthen Zonta’s mission across our state and beyond!

Great news this week! The Zonta Club of the Marquette Area has approved a grant to help financially support our efforts again this year! This support will help us empower women and girls internationally and locally as we work to address period poverty by helping every menstruator have what she needs to manage her cycle.
