Your Buddy is available to:

  • Organise a 1:1 Welcome meeting, get to know you and what you want to get out of Zonta;
  • Signpost who to talk to for various activities;
  • Ensure you have the programme of events;
  • Introduce them to other club members either individually or through events;
  • Help you create your website profile;

Just to say, this is intended to be helpful and not mandatory! Of course you may be confident to start networking without much help, in which case, no problem!
