The Zonta Club of Davao City II, Philippines, energized the community with a Zumba event, joining the NCCC VP Zumba community to promote the Zonta Says NO to Violence campaign during the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence. Participants dressed in orange, symbolizing solidarity in the fight against violence against women and girls.

Beyond the high-energy dance session, Zontian Ruth Castillones, a police officer, led a discussion on the different forms and nature of violence, empowering participants with the knowledge to advocate for women’s rights and prevention strategies.

Adding to the celebration, attendees received goodies from Oishi O Wow, along with Zonta bags, Weshee goodie bags, calendars and t-shirts. Special prizes were awarded for best attire and dance moves, making the event both informative and engaging.
