About
Zonta has a long history of helping to prevent the egregious practice of abusing women and girls, providing millions of dollars annually to international projects in disaster-affected coastal areas of Sri Lanka and war-torn Afghanistan; in sub-Saharan Africa where poverty and HIV are diminishing female population; and in Central and South America- countries such as Bolivia where over 50% of rural women are illiterate and as a consequence abused and violated.
The local chapter is devoted to supporting teenage girls and young women in the Greater Charleston Area to become confident and independent, and avoid becoming victims of abuse. Our mission is to increase awareness of the issue of domestic violence in the Greater Charleston Area.
