Applications are due today, March 8 for the 2024 scholarship. Scholarship applications can be found online at zonta.org, in the guidance office or by messaging the Zonta Club of Frankfort. The selected scholarship application will be sent to the Zonta International Level where the applicant may be selected for an additional $5,000.

“The goal of this award is to encourage young women to participate in public affairs by recognizing a young woman’s commitment to the volunteer sector, evidence of volunteer leadership achievements and a dedication to the empowerment of women worldwide,” Zonta released. “The Zonta International Young Women in Public Affairs Award Program looks to the young women of today to be the leaders of tomorrow.”

Proceeds from the 31st Annual Chicken Noodle Supper and Country Store will be utilized to continue the disbursement of scholarships in the future.
