2024 Young Women in Public Affairs – Deadline March 15, 2024

The Zonta Club of Northampton Area (Massachusetts) is accepting applications. Because Zonta International believes that young women are the key to women’s advancement in the field of public service, it offers the Young Women in Public Affairs (YWPA) Award, which recognizes young women, ages 16-19, for demonstrating leadership skills and commitment to public service and civic causes, and encourages them to continue their participation in public and political life. The winner of the Northampton scholarship will then compete on a District level for a $5000 scholarship from Zonta International. Interested candidates are invited to review the attached description and download the application form.
