| Description |
As a campus chapter of the organization Zonta International, the GOLDEN Z CLUB provides service to the NMU campus and community as well as internationally. In the past, the members have assisted in distributing books to children at Lighting Up the Holidays, participated in Adopt-a-Highway and Make-a-Difference Day, volunteered to do face painting for children at various events, volunteered as crowd control for the U.P. 200 Dog Sled Races, and worked with the children at Teaching Family Homes in Harvey. In the fall of 2005, the Golden Z Club brought a woman and her daughter from Afghanistan to talk about the struggles of women and children in their country. As a result of the hard work and determination from members, the Golden Z Club was recognized and awarded with the Program/Project of the Year Award for 1999-2000 and the Service Project of the Year Award in 1994-1995. Golden Z is a great way to get involved in service projects in the community and internationally. There are also great opportunities for leadership!
