The Zonta Club of Pasay and Environs, Philippines, launched their Zonta Says NO to Violence Against Women activities on 17 November.

In partnership with the Technological Institute of the Philippines, the club aims to create awareness and help prevent violence against women and children from young graduating students.

The Republic Act 9262of the Philippines was established by the government to protect victims of violence against women and children. The club invited Attorney Leah Fortuna to discuss RA 9262.

The event was very successful and was concluded through releasing of orange balloons as a way for the club to show their support of preventing violence against women and children.
