Yellow Rose Recipients
2023

Yellow Rose
The annual Yellow Rose Day coincides with International Women’s Day, a day when Zonta recognizes inspirational women. Members of Zonta nominate women who have mentored or supported them. A single yellow rose, the symbolic gesture from Zonta International for its efforts to improve the lives of women, is given to each recognized woman.

In 2023, we honored two wonderful and inspirational women.
