Jean Boenker with Girls from Christ Haven in 2006

Each December, the Zonta Club of Fort Worth hosts a Christmas Party for the girls at Christ's Haven Children's Home and their house parents. The party is named for the late Jean Boenker, a nutritionist and long-time Zonta member, who took this project on as her own for several years.

For the club members, supporters and the girls, the Jean Boenker Christmas Party is the highlight of the year. The party is held at local Fort Worth Country Clubs with lunch or dinner, the singing of carols, a visit by Santa and a big bag of Christmas presents for each girl. We get to spend some time with these girls and see the delight on their faces as they open their gifts.  


If you are interested in attending and/or "adopting" a girl, please contact Renee Moody at 817-675-3817..

2013 Christmas Party 

Our 2013 Jean Boenker Christmas Party warmed our hearts and made the season a little brighter for 22 girls from Christ's Haven Childrens' Home.

As each girl arrived, she got to create her own unique name tag complete with stickers. Once everyone settled in for dinner, we got to meet and learn more about the girls. Entertainment was live guitar music and a Christmas carol sing-a-long. THEN, it was finally time to open the gifts!

Each girl got a big bag full of gifts and we got the joy of watching their faces as they opened each one.

What a great way to get the Christmas season going!
