The Zonta Club of Sanibel-Captiva and the Zonta Foundation of Southwest Florida are pleased to announce a new fundraising event for 2024 – the Zonta “Peekleball Volley Against Violence” tournament – at Sanibel’s Sundial Resort & Spa pickleball courts on Saturday and Sunday, December 14-15.

“Peekleball” is a nod to Zonta’s home tour “A Peek at the Unique,” a Sanibel-Captiva success story since 2002, and supports Zonta’s 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence—an international campaign that aims to inspire action and end violence against women and girls.

Island businesses are encouraged to enter a team.  In addition to play of all types and at all levels, there will be fun activities including sales, auctions and giveaways.  To register, please go to: Zonta’s Volley Against Violence (pickleballtournaments.com) or to the link on the front page of Zonta’s website at https://zontasancap.com/. Registration deadline is December 10.

 

All funds raised will be distributed in the form of carefully vetted local grants that support Zonta’s mission to build a better world for women and girls, to halt gender-based violence and to aid victims of the same.

 

Zonta thanks sponsors Sundial Resort & Spa, Lee County Sheriff’s Office, Selkirk Sport, Tunaskin, Engage Pickleball, CPX Pickleball, Paddletek, PickleBelle, Rauch Brands, Sanibel Carts, On Island, and Kingfisher Real Estate, for their support.
