For 32 years, the Zonta Club of Concord NH has hosted a Holiday Auction, a signature fundraising event that brings together more than 100 community and business leaders from across the region. The proceeds of this auction directly support scholarships, career readiness programs, and advocacy efforts focused on empowering women - especially those facing economic or social barriers.

This year's auction promises to be bigger and better than ever - with a hosted cocktail hour, plated dinner, fun games, live music, and plenty of amazing items to bid. The evening will be a great kickoff to the holiday season with many of the bid items focused on holiday gifting, entertainment, or hosting.

The Zonta Club of Concord is part of Zonta International, a global service organization of professionals dedicated to empowering and building a better world for women and girls through service and advocacy. Zonta International was organized in 1919 and our Concord Club, a 501(c)(3), was established in 1959. Here are some compelling facts about our club:

- Amelia Earhart was one of our early members (Zonta is the only non-aviation organization she joined)
- Zonta is one of only 132 NGOs granted United Nations General Consultative Status
- For years, we have fought alongside Unchained at Last (Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation) to FINALLY ban child marriage in NH as of January 1, 2025 (a major step in curtailing human trafficking)
- Since 2017, we have awarded more than $100,000 in scholarships to NH women and girls!
