We work with the following philanthropies:

  • Alzheimer’s Association
  • American Heart Association
  • American Red Cross
  • Best Friends Animal Society
  • Circles Salt Lake (8th Grade Focus)

The Salt Lake City chapter is extremely proud of the scope of charities we assist. As you’ll note above, there are many different opportunities to help others from chapter-wide philanthropic events with all of our mothers and daughters, service projects with mother and daughter duos and grade level Ticktocker-only events. Last year our chapter recorded thousands of volunteer hours locally and was part of the three-million hours volunteered nationwide.

Leadership Development

We build capable, courageous leaders through opportunities to learn, reflect and develop. Our leaders become successful in their education, career and communities by learning the necessary skills during their NCL experience.

Examples of skills developed include:

  • Confidence
  • Consensus building
  • Team building
  • Conflict resolution
  • Event planning
  • Parliamentary procedure

Our Chapter Board of Directors:

Developing leadership skills in our daughters is a fundamental part of NCL, Inc. The Leadership Council manages the daughter side of our chapter, and every young woman holds a committee position that helps organize meetings, plan activities, help set up philanthropic events, and much more.
 
The time spent in NCL, Inc, teaches young women responsibility and integrity, as well as caring and compassion. The experience they gain will not only stand out on a college application, but will also help them become strong, capable and confident women in today’s world.

Cultural Experiences

We preserve National Charity League traditions and core values, while appreciating the growth that comes from connecting with different communities and cultures. We continually strive to build stronger ties with our communities and the individuals within them. It is through this understanding that we grow and develop broader worldviews that will shape and support our lives.

  • Traditions – We celebrate the richness of our history through traditions that honor the past while serving the future.
  • Values – We embrace values that make us strong as an organization of mother-daughter leaders.
  • Community Connections – We build connections through experiences that impact our communities.
  • Etiquette – We encourage and mentor kind, respectful and gracious social conduct.

We encourage diverse cultural experiences to create an environment that nurtures positive identity by recognizing and appreciating the value of differences in each other and the world. We support exposure to culturally diverse people and events to broaden perspectives, promote awareness and teach cultural sensitivity. Some time-honored NCL, Inc. traditions are cultural activities designed to teach members inclusion, respect of others, and self-assuredness in social settings.
