Hello fellow Zontians & Friends,

Sometimes “awareness” days or months seem a little much. There are so many of them, every day and every month.  October however is a time to pay attention and raise visibility around several causes that are dear to our hearts as Zontians: Domestic Violence, Breast Cancer, Latinx AIDS, and Health Literacy to name just a few.

Please take the opportunity to support and participate in activities like the Sherriff’s Shuffle for the YWCA of Western Massachusetts, or any of the walks in our region dedicated to ending domestic violence.  I also hope you might join me in supporting the Rays of Hope Walk & Run Toward the Cure of Breast Cancer at the end of the month.  So many of our Zonta Sisters have been touched by this disease and this is a terrific opportunity to support advances in research right here in Western Massachusetts.
