History
The Zonta Club of Arlington County, Virginia was the first Zonta
club to be formed in the state of Virginia. It was chartered on May
27, 1954 with 27 charter members.
The early accomplishments of the club included furnishing a room
in the National Orthopedic Center, and support of Salvation Army
activities in Arlington. In 1975, the club established an Oral History
program for Arlington County for which it was granted official
recognition by the Arlington County Bicentennial Commission. In
that same year the club established a scholarship in Dietary
Technology at Northern Virginia Community College. This nursing
scholarship continues today.
We continue to support Arlington Area Community activities
through volunteer services and donations.
We support the mission of Zonta International of empowering
women through service and
improving the status of women. The mission of the club is to
advance the status of women through local and international
service projects and advocacy.
