As an international organization we are truly a melting pot of cultures and this also applies to our cooking. Because of this, we have had the pleasure of gathering recipes of "International Flavor." On behalf of the women of the Zonta Club of the Santa Clarita Valley I wish to invite you to enjoy their recipes and those submitted by friends of the Club.

As an Area Club of Zonta International (established in 1919), the Zonta Club of the Santa Clarita Valley is a service organization for the advancement of understanding, good will and peace through a world fellowship of executive women and to improve the legal, political, economic and professional status of women. Therefore, the proceeds from this book will go entirely to our local and international service projects. Locally these include a scholarship for undergraduate college students, the Henry Mayo Newhall Memorial Hospital, the Battered Women's Shelter, the Senior Citizen Center, the Girl Scouts, Santa Clarita Valley Athletic Association, Boys' and Girls' Club, the Hotline and the Pleasantview Achievement Center. Internationally, we provide funds for the Amelia Earhart Fellowships and fresh water wells for Sri Lanka.
