History
Zonta International, organized in 1919, is a service organization of business and professional women. The Zonta Club of Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, held its organizing meeting 1 November 1962. The following executive was elected by written ballot: Evelyn Cudmore (president), Mabel Matheson (vice president), Laura Kitchen (secretary) and Anna Riley (treasurer). The chapter participated in blood donor clinics, contributed to various charities, sponsored scholarships for qualified women, published several booklets, organized defensive driving courses and provided innumerable community services. The Zonta Club of Charlottetown disbanded in June of 2006 due to lack of interest, as the membership had dwindled to seven members.
