Join Us for an Inspiring International Women’s Day Celebration

This International Women’s Day, the Zonta Club of Auckland Inc. warmly invites you to a celebratory lunch where we recognise four extraordinary women driving change and accelerating action toward gender equality.

Be inspired as they share their experiences and insights, leaving you motivated to be part of the movement toward a more equitable future:

Desley Simpson, Deputy Mayor of Auckland
Nicky van den Bos, Chief Executive of Women in Sport Aotearoa
Dr. Karanina Sumeo, former Equal Employment Opportunities Commissioner, NZ Human Rights Commission
Shilpa Wilson, Founder of Diamonds in the Rough and recipient of the Zonta Club of Auckland's Cherry Raymond Award

Together, let's celebrate progress and continue supporting women and girls to thrive. Proceeds from the event will go toward Zonta’s scholarships, fellowships, and awards that champion gender equality in education.

Enjoy a delicious lunch, connect with like-minded advocates, and contribute by participating in our silent auction and raffles.

Tickets are limited.

Secure your ticket today and be part of this empowering event!
