The Zonta Club of Mangawhai is inviting applications for its 14th annual Spirit of New Zealand 10-day Development Voyage Award. The adventure is a confidence building opportunity for young women aged 16 to 18 years, who have shown leadership potential or are keen to develop their skills. Applicants must reside in Mangawhai, Tomarata, Wellsford, Kaiwaka, Maungaturoto, Dargaville, Ruakaka or Waipu areas. Zonta International empowers women worldwide through service and advocacy. Since 2012, the Mangawhai club has offered the award for local women which is made possible from the group’s fundraising events such as quiz nights and the generosity of the community.
