NOC enters 2025 with hope and optimism, building on past successes and lessons learned.
In 2024, NOC’s mission and programs continued to impact the lives of many local children and families in need. NOC’s outreach programs –education/enrichment, workforce/community development, health/wellness– grew significantly, benefiting more people to enjoy a better quality of life.
These outcomes were achieved with support from NOC’s donors, partners, volunteers, the communities we serve, as well as the hard work of NOC’s staff and Board of Directors. Together, we will continue to help those in need, paving a pathway for them to progress in life.
On a broader front, as we reflect on 2024 in keeping with our values, beliefs, and perspectives on life, we must not lose sight of those who are suffering, vulnerable, and less fortunate not just here at home, but also throughout the world. They too need our help and support.
We must continue to promote peace, better stewardship of our planet, and better understanding among people throughout the world. We must remain hopeful.
As we move forward, we wish you and your family a successful new year filled with good health, much happiness, and prosperity.
