The Zonta Club of the Royal Gorge has existed for over 50 years in Cañon City. We envision a world in which women's rights are recognized as human rights and every woman can achieve her full potential.
In such a world, women have access to all resources and are represented in decision-making positions on an equal basis with men.
In such a world, no woman lives in fear of violence.
Zonta Clubs are dedicated to helping others. One of our service projects is bags of personal items for women in need from domestic violence through the Family Crisis Services. The bags contain various toiletries donated and bagged by our members. We support SANE (Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner) at Cañon City's hospital by supplying sweat suits and other supplies for the victims of sexual assault. We also offer a yearly leadership scholarship award to a local young woman aged 16-19.
