We are thrilled and proud to announce that the Zonta Club of Brisbane Breakfast was awarded with a United Nations Association of Australia Queensland Community Award on the 23rd of October, in recognition of advocacy for women worldwide through our commitment to the Zonta Birthing Kit project since 2006.
The awards were presented by Her Excellency Ms Penelope Wensley AC, Governor of Queensland in the company of the president of the UNAA Queensland Clem Campbell at Government House.
Judi Hutchison accepted the award on the club’s behalf and she was accompanied by Karyn Lees, President and Helen Hutchison, fellow member of the Zonta Brisbane Breakfast club, plus Erica Osborn, Project Administrator of the Birthing Kit Foundation (Australia).
