YWPA

District 1 Young Women in Public Affairs Chair:
Lorraine Bartlett, Zonta Club of Concord NH USA

The purpose of this award is to encourage more young women to participate in public affairs by recognizing their early commitments to volunteerism, leadership, and dedication to the advancement of the status of women. Each club is encouraged to solicit applications from young women aged 16-19, offer a Club award if possible (not required), and name a Club YWPA Winner. Clubs then forward their winners on to the Governor/District YWPA Chair – and a District YWPA winner is selected and forwarded to the Foundation for Women to compete for a $5000 cash award from the Zonta Foundation for Women.
