- Education Awards: They offer an annual scholarship of $2000, co-sponsored with the City of Mandurah, for a female resident of the Peel District to assist her with university studies.
- Advocacy: The club actively participates in Zonta International campaigns, such as “Zonta Says NO to Violence Against Women,” to raise awareness and advocate for an end to gender-based violence.
