March 8 is also Zonta Yellow Rose Day, which recognizes those who supported women’s suffrage by wearing yellow roses on their lapels.

In past years, those awards were handed out during social gatherings; however, due to restrictions amid the coronavirus pandemic, award winners were honored in private this year, like they were a year ago.
