In 2015 they were recognized as the District 2 Club of the year. The club is currently approximately 40 members strong and active in district &amp; international events. They sent a delegate to the 2016 International Convention held in Nice, France. They are a proud member of the Ogdensburg Chamber of Commerce. Throughout the year, this Ogdensburg Area Zonta Club raises funds to support scholarships and community projects that empower women and girls.<\/p>\n<p>LIKE them on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Ogdensburg-Area-Zonta-Club-156255761135415\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Facebook.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-5522","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/zontadistrict2.org\/ogdensburg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5522","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/zontadistrict2.org\/ogdensburg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/zontadistrict2.org\/ogdensburg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zontadistrict2.org\/ogdensburg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zontadistrict2.org\/ogdensburg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5522"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/zontadistrict2.org\/ogdensburg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5522\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6020,"href":"https:\/\/zontadistrict2.org\/ogdensburg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5522\/revisions\/6020"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/zontadistrict2.org\/ogdensburg\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5522"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
