This, the fifth year of New Knowledge Organization Ltd., was a time of productivity and growth. Building on a track record of mission-driven success, we enjoyed both renewed and new partnerships that generated important learning around the facilitation of healthier ways of living, more effective ways of effecting behavior change, and important stewardship action for our planet. With diverse projects and challenging research questions, there was certainly never a dull moment in our team’s work!

After several years of rapid growth, it was an appropriate year for the logistical and business sides of the organization to review and improve systems and policies to reflect the increased size and activity level of the group. With 100% Board giving, a new Fundraising Committee, and the development of new materials to raise overhead funding, NewKnowledge became poised to reach out for financial support in a professional manner.

As Chair of the hardworking and responsible volunteer Board of NewKnowledge, I am inordinately proud of the work we have accomplished, and confident 2017 will be an exciting and fruitful year.
