Zonta Club has approved the following two service projects.  
1. Villagers for Veterans, Inc.  to raise funds to provide a home for a deserving veteran.  The funds were designated to be used for construction costs for Ashley's House, a temporary home for women veterans transitioning to civilian life.

  Last year's donation went to support Ashley's Cottage.  A smaller home in Fruitland Park which is already providing shelter and services to women veterans.
